• Explore highlights and resources (below) from our previous Day of Prayer to get a feel for what’s in store.

As you gather with other staff, we encourage you to tag any posts or photos you share in Workvivo groups with #wwdp.

Questions about the day? Ask in U.S. Prayer or email wwdp@cru.org.

Connect with other Cru staff in your location to plan at least a portion of the day where you can pray together across all Cru ministries.

Begin to plan out your day of prayer. For example, in Orlando, staff from Central Florida will gather from 9am-3:30pm with a schedule that looks like this:

• 9:00am-10:30am:  Prayer Section 1 will be all together as one group. We will focus on personal confession and repentance, prayer related to our mission fields, and prayer for students and faculty. We will sing and read Scripture together.

• 10:30am-12pm: Prayer Section 2 will get people up and moving. There will be prayer stations (Walk with Jesus; Around the World with the Jesus Film Regional Leaders, and Praying for EveryCampus and CCCU partners) so people can explore the areas of greatest prayer interest to them.

• 12pm-1:30pm:  Lunch

• 1:30pm-3:30pm:  Prayer Section 3 will be all together again for the corporate prayer time which will include sections of prayer for key U.S. initiatives and praying for the world. This section will also include singing and Scripture reading. This is the section of the day of prayer for all staff to gather either in person or online for us to pray together.

This schedule is just a sample based on what will be happening in Orlando. We encourage every location to create a schedule that works best for you.

Many people have asked about the "Walk with Jesus" prayer resource for days with the Lord or other personal reflection times. Here is the digital version of "Walk with Jesus."
