How to pray with Cover’d

Cover’d—Covered in prayer—helps a church lift up real places nearby, day by day, and share needs with people who walk together. You can pray in secret. Together, we can cover the walls with prayer.

Choose Get started and open the sign-in link we email you. On Profile, add your name and ZIP. Then Join a church and, when you’re ready, Join a group so others can welcome you.

Cover’d uses a magic link—no password to remember. Use the same email your leaders put on the roster when they add you. Start from Get started.

Your ZIP gently centers the home map near you, so places to cover in prayer feel close at hand when you open Cover’d.

Finish Profile, then Join a church. Belonging is how Cover’d gathers you with others to pray. Groups come after you’re part of a church—use Join a group when that door opens.

Home shows approved places—schools, hospitals, churches, and more—on a map or list. Pin colors reflect Prayer Health for the period you choose. Open a place to see who’s covering which days and to take an open day yourself.

It’s a gentle picture of how covered a place is for the When filter you pick: Seeking, Yearning, Steady, Blessed, or Abundant. It helps the body notice where prayer is thin—not whether God has answered.

From the map or list, open a place. Choose a stretch of time with open days (or pick specific days), then cover it for yourself. One named person holds each place on each day—so the covering stays clear and shared.

Yes. Choose This week, the rest of the month, or another period—or pick a range on the calendar. You’ll see how many open days you’re taking before you confirm.

Use Add a place. Share the name, type, and address. An app admin looks it over before it appears on the map for everyone.

Inbox includes days you’ve taken to pray for a place. It’s a quiet reminder to keep that appointment and mark that you prayed—not a scorecard.

Future days you hold can be released so someone else can cover them. For today and days already past, you’ll use the prayed / complete flow instead.

Open Ask for prayer. Share with your church and groups as the form allows. Write what people need to know so they can pray with you well.

About a week by default. You’ll be invited to renew. If you don’t, the request expires so the active list stays living—not because the prayer was unanswered.

As the one who asked, you mark Not yet (still being covered in prayer) or Yes (ready to acknowledge it has been answered), with an optional note in your own words. There is no No—Cover’d does not grade the prayer.

Sign in, open Join a church, and ask for yours. A church admin reviews the request and approves when they recognize you.
