Why churches choose an app over a spreadsheet

Members don't pay a thing

One plan covers your whole church. Members join with your link or QR code and book for free, so there's nothing for your congregation to buy before they can take part.

No training needed

Organizers can create an event quickly, and members can book a time without instructions. If someone can open a link, they can sign up.

A prayer life beyond scheduling

A spreadsheet stops at names in boxes. Prayer Book adds church-wide prayer requests, a prayer wall for each event, and live prayer rooms, so the schedule leads into people actually praying.

From spreadsheet to shared schedule in three steps

  1. Step 1

    Set up your church

    Create your account, register your church and start your free trial. You'll get an invitation link and QR code for your congregation.

  2. Step 2

    Create an event

    Choose prayer or fasting, set the dates and how people can take part. Prayer Book creates the bookable prayer times or fasting days for you. A prayer time holds one person. A fasting day has no cap.

  3. Step 3

    Share it and watch it fill

    People open the link, sign in, and choose a time or day. Email reminders go out automatically.

See how Prayer Book works for churches

More than a schedule

  • Prayer requests. Members can share prayer requests with your whole church, with or without their name, and others can respond and pray. Church leaders can review anything that gets reported.
  • Prayer walls. Each event has a prayer wall. Notes, sketches and voice notes shared in that event's live prayer rooms stay with the event.
  • Live prayer rooms. When a booked time starts, the prayer room opens with the event's prayer focus and a place to write, sketch or record a voice note.
  • Members' own events. Members can create personal prayer and fasting events for a life group, their family or someone going through a hard season.
  • Unlimited events. Run prayer weeks, prayer rooms, church-wide fasts and ministry prayer at the same time.
  • On any device. Members can book and pray on their phone with the Prayer Book app, or in any web browser, including iPhone Safari.
