Prayer Walk in Vancouver

Description

As a conference add-on, participants are invited to join a guided prayer walk through select neighbourhoods in the Greater Vancouver area. These prayer walks are designed to combine intentional intercession with thoughtful, relational engagement in the communities we are praying for.

Participants will choose one neighbourhood and be placed in a small group led by a trained facilitator. Each group will receive a guided assignment to complete during the walk. The assignment will include prayer, observation, listening, and appropriate interaction with people in the neighbourhood, and may also involve engaging with local businesses or cultural expressions unique to that community. All activities are designed to be respectful, relational, and culturally sensitive.

These prayer walks are open to anyone—whether you are new to prayer walking or experienced in cross-cultural ministry. This add-on offers a practical way to grow in compassion, cultural awareness, and attentiveness to what God is already doing in our city.
