A weekly prayer gathering for marketplace leaders
Every Friday morning, business and marketplace leaders gather on Zoom to pray — not to perform, not to impress. Just to show up, be honest, and seek something greater than what we're building.
The vision
"The most important thing a leader can do on Friday morning isn't review the numbers — it's to pray."
This started more than a decade ago with a handful of people who believed that prayer and business belong together. That the marketplace is a mission field. That the burdens of leadership — the decisions, the people, the weight of what we're building — are exactly the things God wants to carry with us. After a season away, we're back. And you're invited.
"For where two or three gather in my name, there am I with them."
Matthew 18:20Schedule — 8 to 9 AM Pacific, every Friday

Meet & greet
Five minutes to say hello and settle in. Cameras on if you can.
8:05 – 8:10 AM
Devotion
A short word — Scripture or a reflection for leaders in the marketplace.

Prayer requests
Share what's on your heart. Two requests per person, marketplace-focused, kept brief.

Open prayer
Whoever wants to pray, prays. Unmute and go. Short prayers welcome — God hears them all.

Blessing & close
We close with a blessing and send you into your Friday. We end on time — always. Honoring each other's time is an act of service.

House rules
Keep it marketplace-focused
This group is specifically for business and work-related prayer. Bring your workplace, your team, your clients, your decisions — and the leaders around you who need prayer.
Two requests per person
Pick your two most pressing business needs. Others can be held in your heart — we trust God hears those too.
Keep it brief when you speak
Give the need, not the full story. One or two sentences is plenty. We're here to pray, not to process.
Type it in the Zoom chat if you prefer
Drop your requests in chat before 8:10 if you'd rather not speak or want others to have a written reference while they pray.
We start at 8:00. We end at 9:00.
No exceptions. Honoring everyone's time is an act of service.
Mute when you're not speaking
Background noise pulls people out of prayer. Unmute when you pray, mute when you're done.
One email per week — the Zoom link, a prayer prompt, and nothing else.
No spam. No newsletters. Just Friday's link and a single prompt to carry into prayer.
"Those who hope in the Lord will renew their strength. They will soar on wings like eagles; they will run and not grow weary."
