Create A Virtual Prayer Walk

minute read

The Maasai Missions Team in Northern Tanzania has created a ‘Virtual Prayer Walk' using Google Maps.

A vital part of any missions and outreach plan is prayer. The ‘prayer warriors' on the team can be involved by either praying from a distance using a list of prayer needs or visiting the location and conducting a ‘prayer walk' where they walk through the area and pray for people along the way. The Maasai Missions Team in Northern Tanzania has created a ‘Virtual Prayer Walk' using Google Maps.

Using GPS coordinates, they created push pins on the map to represent the locations Maasai Bomas (villages). By clicking on a push-pin, the virtual prayer walker learn more about that Boma, its residents, and how to pray for them. They added pictures to each location's detail by uploading the picture to Picasa and linking them to the appropriate Boma. View Maasai Virtual Prayer Walk in a larger map I have embedded the map to show that it can be embedded in a web page.  However, to get the full effect, I recommend you click here to view the map in a normal window.  You will see a more structured step by step journey through the prayer walk.
