Our Streets Are Covered in Prayer – And It's Growing!
Three weeks ago, we shared the first wave of prayer-walking activity across our diocese using the Holy Here app—and now we’re back with an update that fills our hearts with gratitude and hope. The maps are lighting up. The prayers are multiplying. And the Spirit is clearly on the move.
From the heart of the Wellington CBD to the slopes of the Miramar Peninsula, around the Wellington Cathedral of St Paul, across Berhampore, Island Bay, Kilbirnie, Hataitai and all the way to Naenae in the Hutt Valley, your footsteps and prayers are making a visible and spiritual impact.
We want to say a huge thank you and well done to everyone who has stepped outside and prayed over their neighbourhood. You’re not just walking—you’re carrying the presence of Christ with you into every street, every corner, every hidden place. You’re blessing homes, businesses, playgrounds, bus stops—real lives and real communities.
We’re still in the season of Eastertide, and as we journey toward Pentecost, we continue to pray with expectation. That the Holy Spirit will move powerfully. That lives will be touched. That our cities, towns and suburbs will be transformed by God's love.
So let’s keep going!
There are still many streets yet to be walked. Many homes yet to be prayed over. And many more people in our diocese who might just need a nudge of encouragement to lace up their shoes and walk with intention.
We’d love to see your part of the map.
If you've been using the Holy Here app to track your prayer walks, take a screenshot of your neighbourhood and send it to us! Let’s celebrate the full width and breadth of our diocese—from the coast to the hills, from town centres to quiet cul-de-sacs. Whether your prayer route is one block or an entire suburb, every step matters.
📍Let’s make it visible. Let’s make it prayerful. Let’s make it count.
And as we look ahead to Pentecost, let us keep asking God to fill our streets with hope, healing, and renewal.
Come Holy Spirit—renew us, our communities, and every place we call home.
