How Our Prayer Request Service Brings You to the Holy Land
The spiritual power of sending prayers to the Church of the Holy Sepulchre in Jerusalem, without leaving your home.
Bring Your Heart to the Holy City
Not everyone can walk the ancient streets of Jerusalem or kneel at Golgotha, the site of Jesus' crucifixion. Pilgrimage is a dream for many, yet the demands of modern life, health concerns, or financial limitations make it impossible for some. Through the Prayer Request Courier Service, your intentions can still reach the holiest stones of our faith. We offer Christians across the globe a way to send their most heartfelt prayers directly to the Church of the Holy Sepulchre, without ever leaving home.
When we deliver your prayer, it is not a symbolic gesture. It is a physical, tangible act of devotion. We carry your printed intention into the Church of the Holy Sepulchre, the holiest site in Christianity, and place it in the very spaces where Jesus was crucified, laid to rest, and resurrected. In doing so, your prayer joins a centuries-old tradition of Christian petition and faith.
Our Prayer Request Services
Each of our services is focused entirely on the Church of the Holy Sepulchre, allowing you to connect with three of the most sacred locations in Christianity:
- Prayer Request to Golgotha (Calvary): Delivered at Golgotha, the site of the Crucifixion, or placed at the Stone of Anointing where Christ’s body was prepared for burial. It is a deeply moving option for those seeking to unite their own sufferings and hopes with the Cross of Christ.
- Prayer Request at the Stone of Anointing: Placed on the very stone where tradition says Jesus was laid after His death. Pilgrims for centuries have knelt here, pressing their prayers into the marble, and we now bring your petitions to this powerful location for intercession, healing, reconciliation, and thanksgiving.
- Prayer Request at the Tomb of Jesus (Aedicule): Offered inside the Aedicule, the small structure enclosing Christ’s empty tomb. Here, the Resurrection is proclaimed in silence and stone. We can also play a recorded voice message of your prayer, allowing your own words to echo where the angel first announced: “He is not here; He is risen.”
Every prayer is treated with reverence and dignity. We print your petition carefully, fold it prayerfully, and deliver it by hand. Many clients request that we light a candle during the delivery, symbolising their ongoing faith, and we often provide a photograph or video so you can share in the sacred moment from afar.
Why Send a Prayer to Jerusalem?
For two millennia, Christians have sought out the city of Jerusalem to draw near to Christ. Pilgrimage has been called the “fifth Gospel” because it speaks without words, letting stones, tombs, and altars proclaim the Good News. But even when travel is impossible, your prayer can still make this journey.
Our service is especially meaningful for those who:
- Cannot travel because of health, finances, or age
- Long to pray for loved ones across distance
- Need courage to face grief, illness, or uncertainty
- Desire to renew their connection with Jesus at the place of His Passion and Resurrection
Thousands of faithful have already entrusted us with their prayers. They ask for healing, guidance, reconciliation, and gratitude. And the sacred stones of the Holy Sepulchre have received them, carrying those whispered hopes into the presence of God.
Make It Tangible: Blessed Gifts from the Holy Land
To anchor the experience of your prayer, many choose to bring home or gift a sacred object from the Holy Land. These devotional items are not simple souvenirs, they are reminders of your faith journey.
- Blessed Crosses and Crucifixes: Handmade in Jerusalem and often blessed at the Church of the Holy Sepulchre, these devotional crosses are a visible reminder of faith and protection.
- Olive Wood Rosaries: Carefully crafted from olive trees of the Holy Land, these rosaries unite your daily prayers with the soil where Christ once walked. Holding them becomes a meditation in itself, especially when connected to a prayer request placed at Christ’s tomb.
Together, these items help you hold the Holy Land close, whether in your home, parish, or family life.

The Eternal Echo of Prayer
To send a prayer to the Church of the Holy Sepulchre is to participate in a tradition older than memory. It is to join countless pilgrims who have laid down their burdens at Calvary, pressed their lips to the Stone of Anointing, and rejoiced before the empty tomb.
It is a way of saying: “I believe. I remember. I trust.” And when your intention rests at the site of Christ’s sacrifice and triumph, it becomes more than words on paper, it becomes a testimony written in faith.
Let us carry your prayer to Jerusalem.
Submit your Prayer Request today and join thousands who have rediscovered the closeness of Christ in the land He called home.
Let your words rest on sacred stone. Let your heart be heard in Heaven.
