A movement where Christ is named
24-7 Prayer
Prayer & missions · Founded 1999 · by Pete Greig
24-7 Prayer is an international, interdenominational Christian movement of prayer, mission, and justice that began in 1999 with a single non-stop prayer room started by Pete Greig and friends in England. It spread as communities around the world took up continuous, round-the-clock prayer. Today it encourages ongoing prayer, forms missional communities, and connects prayer with practical care for the poor and the vulnerable.

The Scripture behind the work
Where the door leads
24-7 Prayer grew from a simple desire to seek Jesus in continuous prayer, and it holds prayer, mission, and justice together as one calling. It invites believers of every tradition to keep watch in prayer. A reader can respond by joining or starting a prayer room, or by praying continually.
Connect to the real thing
The Living Bread is a door, not the destination. The life is with Christ and his people.
