1. Why activprayer?

Because every action matters. Activprayer helps transform ordinary actions into extraordinary ones.

We believe that when you dedicate and perform an action for an intention greater than self, it transforms you and the people around you. Eventually, you help to transform the world.

2. What is activprayer?

Inspired action dedicated to an intention greater than self.

Every activprayer has two parts:

• Intention: A person, cause, or reason for your action that is greater than yourself.
• Action: An active expression of what your intention means to you.

Intentions can either be created or joined. A powerful intention may have hundreds of unique actions from different people joined to it.

3. How do I create an activprayer?

Before you act, dedicate your action to an intention greater than yourself. It’s not the action itself that you’re dedicating, but the way that you carry it out.

There are three steps:

• Prepare: Before you act, remember your ultimate purpose. Answer the question: “Why am I doing this?” Then commit to making your action an expression of who you are and what matters to you.
• Act: Perform the action to the best of your ability, with focus, intensity, and great care. Finish well.
• Share: Share your activprayer with the world to lift up and inspire others.

4. How can activprayer help me?

Our hope is that activprayer can be an inspiration for all of us to think first about how we can help others. This website is a platform for sharing actions that are bigger than ourselves. We believe that in making our actions and our lives a gift to others, we ultimately find the deepest joy.

5. Is activprayer something new?

No, it’s simply an expression of something that people have doing for hundreds of years. Many people we meet tell us that they’ve been doing activprayer their whole lives! Our goal is to help develop and apply the power of activprayer in new ways.

6. Who can do activprayer?

Absolutely anyone. We are united by a belief that every action matters, and our reasons for believing this are diverse.

7. What are the criteria for my Intention and Action?

There are two basic criteria for something to be considered an activprayer:

• The intention should be dedicated to something or someone other than oneself.
• The intention and action should both be good. They should not harm self or others in any way.

If you see an activprayer that doesn’t meet these criteria, please flag it so that our team can review it. We want this community to remain one of light and hope.

8. How do I get more involved?

We are looking for community leaders to organize and lead activprayer groups and events. We’d love to get to know you! Please contact us using the button below.
