St. Peter Claver devoted his life to serving the forgotten, the enslaved, and the suffering.

Prayer in Numbers is Powerful

When you submit a prayer intention, you’re not alone. Our growing online community of prayer warriors stands with you—lifting up your intentions with faith, devotion, and love. Whether it’s for healing, guidance, or gratitude, know that your prayer is part of a greater chorus calling out to God.

“I urge, then, first of all, that petitions, prayers, intercession and thanksgiving be made for all people– for kings and all those in authority, that we may live peaceful and quiet lives in all godliness and holiness.” (1 Timothy 2:1-2)

“For where two or three are gathered together in my name, there am I in the midst of them.” (Matt. 18:19–20.)

“Are any of you sick? You should call for the elders of the church to come and pray over you, anointing you with oil in the name of the Lord. Such a prayer offered in faith will heal the sick, and the Lord will make you well. And if you have committed any sins, you will be forgiven.” (James 5:14-15 )
