Prayer Wall Overview

The prayer wall is a shared space for your members to post prayer requests and pray for each other. Each church has its own prayer wall — requests are scoped to the church and are not shared across churches unless explicitly posted as global.

What members can do

  • Post a prayer request with a title, description, and category
  • Post anonymously — their name is hidden from other members
  • Scan a printed prayer using the OCR scanner (supports 12+ Indian languages)
  • Pray for another member's request — a tap increments the "prayed" counter
  • Comment on a prayer request
  • Members are rate-limited on how many prayers they can post in a window, so they don't spam the wall

What admins can do

  • View every prayer request posted to the church
  • Delete any prayer (swipe left on a card, or use the three-dot button)
  • Post a prayer directly from the moderation screen
  • Search by member name or prayer text
  • Filter by time: All, Today, This Week, This Month
  • Pull to refresh, with a tombstone sync that removes deleted prayers from the local cache

Prayer categories

These are the categories members choose from when posting:

  • General
  • Health
  • Family
  • Spiritual Growth
  • Financial
  • Relationships
  • Work / Career
  • Guidance
  • Praise Report
  • Urgent

Anonymous posting

Members can tick Post Anonymously when they create a prayer. Their name is shown as "Anonymous" on the wall. Admins see the same anonymous label in the moderation screen.

Translation

Prayer text is rendered through a translatable text widget, so content in Telugu, Hindi, Tamil, and other Indian scripts displays correctly using the Noto font fallback.
