You will meet your M.P., visit Question Period, tour the Parliament Buildings and join in on a regular prayer time at the Chapel on the Hill. Extra possibilities include visits to the Supreme Court, Governor General's residence, and national monuments and museums.
Give us a call to begin the process of organizing your team to come. We will guide you through the preparation and implementation of your prayer journey to Ottawa. Prayer group leaders and pastors are invited to contact us for more information.We have also provided below a couple of information sheets in pdf. format that you can download and print.
The Visiting Christian School Ministry
This is a ministry designed to give teachers and students of Christian Schools and Home Schools the opportunity to come to the nation’s capital and to experience the educational and spiritual opportunities of praying for the nation on and around Parliament Hill. The National House of Prayer would host the students either for a one day field trip, an overnight visit, or for the week. The visit would uniquely combine learning about government from God’s perspective coupled with the spiritual values and the practical experience of praying for the nation and its leaders.
For more information on the Visiting Christian School Ministry, see the following PDF files:

For Local Intercessors: The Night Watch Prayer
From time to time in our facility we hold prayer vigils for the nation that run from 7 p.m. to 1 a.m. We welcome intercessors, pastors, prayer groups and individuals who love to pray. Join us for the night watch. Come when you can and leave when you must. Contact us about the next one that is scheduled.
Start a local Prayer Group
As you know it is not necessary to come to Ottawa in order to pray for the Canadian government. The National House of Prayer provides resources to help encourage Christians to prayer for our nation's political leaders. You may want to start a local prayer group to pray for government, or you are already part of a group that does just that. The National House of Prayer would like to help. Please contact us.
One of the major ways we resource prayer groups in Canada is by providing regular up-to-date insight and prayer information about issues on Parliament Hill. See the note below about how to subscribe to our NHOP newsletter.
