Prayer for St. Peter’s Basilica (Rome):
“Lord Jesus, bless St. Peter’s Basilica, a sign of unity for Christians across the world. May all who enter its doors be renewed in faith, strengthened in hope, and filled with love for You.”

Prayer for the Church of the Holy Sepulchre (Jerusalem):
“Risen Lord, we thank You for the holy ground of Your resurrection. May this church always remind us of the victory of life over death and unite us in Your eternal promise.”

Prayer for Westminster Abbey (London):
“Almighty God, bless Westminster Abbey, where generations have gathered to worship. May it continue to be a light of Christian witness and a place of peace and prayer for all nations.”

Prayer with St. Francis of Assisi:
“Lord, through the example of St. Francis, teach us simplicity, humility, and love for all creation. Help us to live in peace and harmony with one another.”

Prayer with St. Teresa of Calcutta:
“Jesus, through the life of St. Teresa of Calcutta, inspire us to serve the poorest and most forgotten. Give us hearts that see You in every person in need.”

Prayer with St. Augustine:
“O God, who guided St. Augustine from confusion to truth, guide us also to find rest in You, for our hearts are restless until they rest in Your love.”

Prayer with St. Mary Magdalene:
“Merciful Lord, as You called Mary Magdalene to be the first witness of Your resurrection, empower us to proclaim Your Good News with courage and faith.”

“Heavenly Father, bless the churches and saints across the world that bear witness to Your name. Unite us as one body of Christ, beyond walls and denominations, so that the world may believe in Your love.”

How It Works:

• Members can light a “digital candle” on the Christian Nation website.
   
• Along with the candle, they can write a short prayer request or dedicate it to a saint, a church, or an intention (family, healing, thanksgiving, peace, etc.).
   
• The prayer will be displayed on a public Prayer Wall (unless the member chooses private).
   
• Weekly, the community can pray together over all requests.
