Welcome to prayforthehomeless.org. This site offers you the opportunity to meet someone who is homeless and pray for them. We also include people who have recently been homeless and are in recovery from homelessness. They all have one thing in common: they need the power and blessings of your prayers. A small percentage of the homeless are able to stay in public shelters or other temporary accommodations for short periods, but the majority of these people sleep in abandoned buildings, warehouses or under bridges each night. We invite you to pick a different person to pray for each week and share this idea with a friend. This site is in the process of development. You can expect it to grow and change over the coming weeks and months. We invite your feedback and comments by email at prayforthehomeless@gmail.com.


We have added a feedback feature that allows you to click to indicate your committment to pray, write or email others. Providing this response will let others know which homeless have many people praying for them and which ones are still waiting for prayer. At the bottom of this page click on "OLDER POSTS" to see more homeless prayer candidates.

Tony A. - Prayer Candidate 161

Tony is 43 years old and is mentally disabled. Like many people in the homeless community, the breakup of a household and a family left him homeless after a divorce. Tony remained homeless for quite sometime, and has now found a temporary place to stay in a boarding house. He spends a great deal of his time walking throughout the city and often participates in the homeless day program at Church of the Reconciler to get a good meal and see other people.


He has a strong faith in God. For Tony part of his faith walk includes seeking to be at peace and enjoy each day no matter what happens. Please pray for Tony’s health and safety as he moves throughout the city and pray that he will be able to have a permanent home.
