What is Prayer Force United?
The city of Birmingham is a beautiful place to live, work and play. But over the past few years the beauty of our fair city has been splintered by violent crime. Even impressive efforts by law enforcement have done little to reverse the tide of this rampant violence.
Prayer Force United was established to put the power of prayer to work in the streets of Birmingham. Each month, churches, ministries, leaders and citizens from all over the metropolitan area come together to walk through and pray over the most crime-ridden neighborhoods in the city.
Since the effort began in 2008, the crime rate in the city of Birmingham has decreased across the board. It is clear that God is hearing the prayers of His people in our city and the words of Isaiah are ringing true: Violence will not be heard again in your land. (60:18)
