Prayer is an important spiritual practice and can provide hope, strength, and encouragement. During this season we want to continue a campus ritual of creating Community Prayer Partners.

Community Prayer Partners are Luther Seminary students, faculty, and staff. We ask you to commit to pray for one person. We will gather names, emails, and prayer requests through the Google form below. You will be matched with someone.

Place their name in a conspicuously, frequently seen place like your laptop screen, desktop, or mirror. Then pray every time you see your prayer partner’s name. It is our desire this powerful prayer ritual will grant people strength, hope, and peace.
