About
Something happens — a diagnosis, a birth, a decision you can’t make alone — and you want to say it out loud. Not always to be fixed. Often just so it isn’t only yours to carry.
People have done this for as long as there have been people, in every tradition, under a hundred different names. Prayer is one. Sitting with someone is another. So is holding a person in mind on a hard day.
PrayerGroup.Live is a place for that: share a prayer, a worry, a hope — and find that real people are quietly holding you in theirs.
Room for every tradition, and for people still working it out
Whether you pray every day or aren’t sure what you believe, whether you come from a deep tradition or from none at all — you’re welcome here. You choose what you share, who sees it, and how close to your own tradition you’d like to stay.
Built for every kind of participant
Some people come to share what’s on their heart, some to pray for a stranger, some to read quietly and never post at all, some to bring their people together, some to lend a skill. Every one of those makes a place like this work, and we’re building a space that works for everyone.
For conveners
If you lead a congregation, a prayer group, or just a handful of friends who check in on each other — this is being built with you in mind. Groups you control, events you run, and a way to stay close to members who’ve moved far away. Your group, your rules, your rhythm.
We’re designing it with the conveners who’ll use it, while the shape of this is still open. If you’d like a hand in that, write to us at hello@prayergroup.live. We’d like to hear from you.
Our guiding principles
A few things we’ve settled up front, so you don’t have to wonder:
- Safety first. Built into the foundations, not added later. This only works if it’s safe to be vulnerable here.
- Private by design. Your words are yours, and we will never sell them.
- You’re in charge. You decide what you share, who sees it, and how much of this you want.
- Built with you, not just for you. We work in the open, and we listen.
- Always free to ask, always free to offer. The heart of this costs nothing, in either direction.
We’d rather earn your trust slowly than borrow your attention cheaply.
Who’s building this
Two founders in the San Francisco Bay Area, part of the same human journey as everyone else. Self-funded — no investors, no advertisers. More about us as we go.
We’re just getting started
The prayer space is the first piece. Groups, events, and a good deal more are close behind — and we’re shipping fast, with the people who got here early.
Right now that’s a small group. That’s on purpose: we’d rather grow steadily with people who care than fill a room quickly. If you’d like to help shape what this becomes, you’re exactly who we’re looking for.
