    “I always wanted to be a person of prayer, but…”

    2 Min Read

    Part 9 of 9

    3 August 2026

    Carey, a student in Australia, says she always wanted to be a person of prayer – but struggled to find the motivation to make time.

    But when a friend invited her to take part in the Global Week of Prayer, everything changed.

    We’re celebrating all that God has done and is doing in Carey’s life!

    If you’re asking God to awaken your own heart or the hearts people in your community into a deeper experience of prayer, would you join us in this year’s Global Week of Prayer? Running from 6 – 13 September 2026, this is an opportunity to unite around the world and declare the name of Jesus over our homes, communities, and nations.

    Carey encountered God in a 24-7 Prayer Room supported by 24-7 Prayer Australia. To learn more about the work of the 24-7 Prayer Australia team, click here.
