MISSION
STATEMENT
PRAYER | UNITY | EQUIPPING | AWAKENING
WV Prayer Alliance exists to mobilize regional and statewide prayer, unity and equipping events, preparing the body of Christ in WV for Awakening.
Following the blessing of God on the 55 Strong in Prayer unity gathering on September 29, 2018, in Charleston WV, we are developing regional networks of churches and prayer groups all over WV. These regional prayer networks are praying together to see what God desires to accomplish through them together in a region. We believe that the Church is better together.
We believe that Awakening is coming to West Virginia, and it will not be contained by one church, one county or one region of the state. We are cultivating regional prayer because we believe that Awakening is preceded by and sustained through prayer.
We are developing initiatives to help any Christian, congregation or prayer group in WV, who desires to prepare for awakening and harvest, to have the resources to do so.
About Us
WV Prayer Alliance is a ministry of the Appalachian Prayer Center. The vision for this partnership is to have unified prayer across the state of WV and also with the remaining States in Appalachia.
We are an alliance of praying believers that are contending for Awakening.
