THE CHALLENGE
Most of our churches have built walls between the generations.
Walk into most churches on a Sunday and the generations are quietly sorted into separate rooms: children downstairs, students in their wing, parents in the service, seniors off to the side. Each group is technically present, but rarely in the same conversation, and over time people stop feeling essential to anyone outside their age bracket. The result is a church that’s busy but disconnected, full of people who feel undervalued and a body that’s far from unified.
THE INVITATION
It’s time to take the walls down between the generations.
It’s time to take the walls down. When the generations share the same room, the same table, and the same story, something changes. Children grow up learning from people who’ve walked the road before them. Parents stop carrying the weight alone. Seniors are trusted with the wisdom they’ve spent a lifetime gathering. The church becomes what it was always meant to be. One family, not four programs.

The Pray for Me Campaign has had a deep and lasting impact on the life of our church.
Students and families have seen and experienced change. Older generations, through the catalyst of prayer, have been folded into the mission and vision of the student ministry.

Student Pastor, TN
I’ve been in Children’s Ministry for over 35 years. I am a Prayer Champion for a family in our church, and it has changed the way that I look at that family.
And it has changed the way that I pray for them.
The prayers are so different than any prayer that l’ve prayed in my walk with the Lord.The Pray for Me Campaign has the makings of a renewal that will help this generation of young people stay grounded in their faith.
