Agree Together, Pray Together: A Living Tradition Online
In the quiet rhythm of the ancient Church, we find a timeless rhythm of unity: the practice of praying together at a single hour, as Christ promised in Matthew 18:19, “If two of you agree on earth about anything they ask, it will be done for them by my Father in heaven.” This living tradition breathes anew through Orthodox House Social’s “Prayer by Agreement” feature, inviting us to join the communion of saints across the globe.
Today, thirteen faithful gather in eleven active groups, sharing the same prayer at the same hour. Tonight, the global “Universal Prayer for Peace” group invites you to join them at 21:00 UTC. Simply set your reminder, and at that hour, join brothers and sisters in prayer for our troubled world, keeping the names of the sick and departed in our hearts as each group maintains its own commemoration list.
This is not merely an online feature—it is a bridge to the ancient practice of *koinonia*, the shared life of the Church. You are warmly invited to create a group for your own parish, diocese, or beloved community, weaving your own threads into this tapestry of prayer. Let your local church become a beacon of this unity, where neighbors pray together as one.
Come, join us in this sacred rhythm. Find the full schedule and create your own group in the Prayers section of Orthodox House Social. Let us agree together, pray together, and be one in Christ.
