Learn More About 10 Days of Prayer

The 10 Days of Prayer movement began in 2004, with its roots right here in St. Louis, and has grown into an international effort for cities to join together in prayer.

10 Days of Prayer: St. Louis is an annual, focused time for the Church to unite in prayer. Since 2019, the St. Louis Metro area has seen the Lord’s hand at work, uniting churches across our region to continue in prayer and service together year round. Our meeting sites, partners and participants are representative of many Christian denominations and traditions joined as members of the body of Christ.

It is our desire to see the Church united as we cry out to our King Jesus to do what only He can do in our city, nation and world. We invite you to join us as we go to Him together.
