Walk75 | Prayer Walk for Health
Walk75
We are inviting you to take part in a prayer walk around your hospital or neighbourhood, to pray for Christians in our healthcare services as CMF celebrates its 75th anniversary. We’re suggesting that activities take place between July and 20 October – when we will mark Healthcare Sunday. ‘The prayer of a righteous person is powerful and effective.’ (James 5:16)
What is prayer walking?
Taking time to walk around an area with your eyes (and your heart) open to what God is saying – committing everything you see to him.
What would work best for your location?
We want you to take part in the way that works best for your group. It doesn’t have to be 75 minutes or 75km if you’d rather do something different. The important thing is that as we reflect on our 75th year, we are prayerful and trusting in our great God. Here are some suggestions:
- A 75-minute prayer walk in stages – perhaps from one local surgery to another.
- Split your location up into distinct areas and ask people to sign up to cover each area in prayer in their own time – this would work well in a busy hospital. You may still like to have a short group event.
- An online ‘virtual’ prayer walk, with photographs of each location – this would be a good solution for a group that are spread around, such as a rural group.
- A 75km walk over several days – the CMF Nurses and Midwives team are doing a sponsored walk.
Committing to pray at a certain time for your chosen time period.
