Gather and Pray

Gather + Pray: A call to united prayer across Elim

Join churches and leaders across the Elim Movement in united prayer on 6–14 September 2025

As a Movement, we love to pray, because prayer changes things and prayer changes us. Prayer connects us to Jesus, tunes our hearts to the Holy Spirit and aligns us with God’s work in our lives, churches, and communities.

This September, we’re inviting the whole Elim family of leaders, churches, and individuals to come together as part of a National Week of Prayer with many Christian organisations and denominations. It’s a moment to:

  • Build community by praying for and with one another.
  • Seek God together for those who don’t yet know Jesus or return to following Jesus
  • Reflect and respond to God’s call to deeper consecration.

Let’s be a people who pray, because when we do, we join in with what God is already doing to see His Kingdom come.

What is planned during the week of prayer?

From 6–14 September 2025, we’re encouraging the entire Elim Movement to Gather + Pray in homes, churches, small groups, online, and in everyday moments.

This is a week to intentionally pause, listen, and pray for:

  • People in our lives and communities
  • Places where God is moving or where we long to see Him move
  • The future of our churches and the wider Elim Movement

Download our Prayer Guide to help you get started, but we’re also encouraging you to be led by the Holy Spirit in how and what you pray.

How can you get involved?

  • Pray together in households, small groups, Sunday meetings, over lunch, or online.

Let’s be a Movement that prays together, in unity, and with expectation.

Glen takes us to Isaiah 9:6 and reminds us that the Bible speaks about a very different kind of hope. The promised Messiah came just as God said he would. Because Jesus came once, we can live with absolute confidence that he will come again.
Light and Life - a prayer with Rana Kundi
Join Rana in a short but powerful prayer to Jesus, the Light of the World and giver of life. Thank God for the gift of physical and eternal life, and ask him to increase his light within you so that you can shine for his glory.
Incarnation - a prayer with Adelle Howells
In this short prayer, Adelle leads us in thanking God for the miracle of Jesus’ coming. We remember that the Maker of heaven and earth stepped into our weakness, pain and brokenness so that we could be brought close to him.
