  • Twitter Prayer Chain!

    July 27, 2010 | 2 Comments

    Churches used to have telephone prayer chains, where people called one another to pass along prayer requests to others in the community. But that’s so 1990! Today we’ve got the Internet and Twitter, so here’s how we’re going to do this.

    Follow the instructions below and whenever a new prayer request goes up on the CC prayer list, you’ll get a text message on your phone (TECHNOLOGY!).

    1. Go to http://twitter.com and sign up for a new account (unless you already have one).
    2. Once you are signed in, click on “Settings” on the top bar.
    3. Click on “Mobile”
    4. Enter your cell phone number and click “Start” to verify your phone.
    5. Once your phone is verified, go to
      http://twitter.com/ccprayer
    6. Click the “Request” button to get access to prayer tweets (they are only visible to those who request access).
    7. Later on, head back to http://twitter.com/ccprayer to see if your request has been granted
    8. Once we grant access, you should see that you are following @ccprayer, with a list of the prayer tweets below.
    9. Click the little mobile phone icon next to “Following” to have all prayer tweets sent immediately to your mobile phone. It should look like this:

      Twitter is great for this idea. Twitter can be used to help in so many ways. Last week, I helped someone find their lost passport in Amsterdam although I was in Dallas. A church planter friend last week helped me get my computer fixed through Twitter. I’ve even prayed for total strangers on Twitter and they’ve appreciated it. Hope your prayer chain is very successful.
