OUR STORY Prayerful comes to you from Christian Healing Ministries, a ministry with deep roots in the practice of Christ-centered healing prayer as modeled by Scripture. CHM is dedicated to the study, practice and teaching of healing prayer, and Prayerful is part of our effort to pass on all that we’ve learned from over four decades of ministry.

Each prayer contains: the text of the prayer, the foundation of the prayer, the scriptural references for each prayer, and what we call Prayer Experience - an immersive feature to dive into each prayer through an audio recording. - Prayer Requests, where you can submit your intentions, for our prayer ministers to pray for them during 30 days. - A Bookstore with a wide variety of books related to all the categories within the Prayer Library.. - Prayer of the Week and Book of the Week. - Favorites, where you can keep and bookmark your favorite prayers and books from the app. PRAYER LIBRARY Through Prayerful, we want to create more awareness of Jesus’ desire to heal in this world. By continually growing the prayer library and translating the prayers into different languages, we hope to meet the needs of more and more people.
