About trypraying

There are over one million copies of the trypraying booklet being used and enthusiastically shared with others. Beginning with the prayer, ‘God, if you are there…’ it helps a person pray about things that are important to them.

Why don’t you try praying for a week and see what happens?

FOR YOU, OR SOMEONE YOU KNOW

Many people start with a booklet passed on by a friend. It’s a simple and natural way to explore faith for yourself.

For Christians, it’s a simple way to share faith, not by having all the answers, but by offering something real and accessible.

FOR CHURCHES AND COMMUNITIES, WANT TO DO TRYPRAYING?

Trypraying also works as a simple way for churches to connect with their communities. It gives people confidence to share their faith in an easy, respectful way.

In many places, churches are working together to run trypraying across a town or city, creating a wider invitation for anyone to explore prayer.

Why don’t you run the Use It and Lose It project? One week every in church receives a booklet and the following week, they pray for an opportunity to pass it on.

TRYPRAYING, IT COULD CHANGE YOUR LIFE.
