We would like your worship team to quietly play during the prayer segments. If your team is comfortable with singing a call & response, worship-driven prayer time, we recommend using this style. However, prayer leaders can be creative in how they design the prayer segments, employing elements such as small group prayer, “Rapid Fire,” song/prayer mix, liturgical-style prayers, prophetic declarations, etc. You will have the opportunity to connect with your prayer leader on-site before your block to work out your plan for the prayer segments. If you have a prayer leader(s) connected to your church/ministry you’d prefer to use, make sure to sign them up when you sign up your worship team.

We ask that all teams arrive 30 minutes in advance of your two hour block. We ask this for three primary reasons:

#1 - Each team will connect with the Prayer Room Facilitator before the transition takes place. Their roles are to make sure that teams transition seamlessly, to watch over the prayer room by stewarding the worshipful atmosphere of the room, and to help trouble-shoot anticipated issues.

#2 - Each team will connect with the sound person regarding what to expect when your team transitions onto the stage. Good communication = smoother transition.

#3 - Having time before your block provides time for your team to discern what the Spirit of God is already doing in the room. Part of transitioning smoothly involves making sure your team can flow in what the Holy Spirit is already doing from the previous two hour block.

​

We will have a designated space for your team to meet and prepare. Please follow the signs upon arriving or ask the front desk volunteer.

We will not be providing projected song lyrics for people in the room. Keep that in mind when choosing your song list. If you want to provide lyric sheets or a QR code that links to a site you create to facilitate singing, please feel free. (We will not be able to provide any copies during the event.)

We need worship leaders (with teams, preferably) and prayer leaders to lead two hour blocks of worship, prayer, and scripture reading. During the event, a prayer leader will be reading an assigned passage from the Bible at the beginning of each hour.  During the official prayer segment within each two hour block, the prayer leader will focus the intercession on assigned neighborhoods of St. Louis to send forth laborers.

1st Hour

5 - 10 Minutes - Reading from Bible (with specific passages assigned) 

15 Minutes - Worship Segment #1

30 Minutes - Prayer Segment #1 (Focus #1) 

10 Minutes - Worship Segment #2

2nd Hour

5 - 10 Minutes - Reading from Bible (with specific passages assigned) 

15 Minutes - Worship Segment #3

30 Minutes - Prayer Segment #2 (Focus #2)

10 Minutes - Concluding Worship Segment

Because our desire is to have non-stop (music) worship for all 40 hours, we have a special method we’d like teams to use when transitioning between each two hour block. We ask that your main harmony instrument (acoustic or keys most likely) is the first person to transition onto the stage and the first person to transition off the stage at the close of the two hours. This means your harmony instrument will be entering onto the stage five minutes before your block officially begins. Please keep this in mind as you choose your final song, as the next worship team will begin transitioning onto the stage. The remainder of the team can take the next 5-10 minutes to get setup while the main instrument plays and the prayer leader reads scripture.

Pray for the Lou will provide:

• Full sound system (with 16 inputs)

• Four floor wedges for monitors

• Electric Drum Kit & Hand Drum

• Keyboard with 88 weighted keys

• Guitar Stands

• Music Stands

• 3 - 4 Boom Stands

• 2 Wireless Mics (one used for prayer leader/reader)

• 4 - 5 wired Shures

• Related Cords

Please note: Your team should bring their own bass, electric or acoustic guitars and any personal cords they’d prefer to use. We will not be able to facilitate amps, as it will overwhelm the room sound level.
