‘By Prayer’ is our motto and emphasises our total dependence on God.
We rely on God to soften hearts, provide resources, protect us, and guide us. So, we come before Him regularly, asking for His favour in the places where SIM workers serve. It is only “By Prayer,” that SIM can carry out our ministry and life — it’s central to all we do.

How often do we pray?
In the spirit of Paul’s words “pray without ceasing,” we seek to be in constant communion with God through prayer. We have specific times for focused prayer throughout the day, month and year.
Each day, we pray for different countries and ministries around the world, following our Prayer Guide. We read about the vision, ministries, and prayer requests of SIM teams, focusing on the least-reached people groups.
We also set aside time 10 days each year, between Ascension Day and Pentecost, to pray and reflect together globally. Additionally, in December, we gather around our Founders’ Day to celebrate and give thanks for God’s faithfulness since SIM first began.
What prayer tools do we use?
Along with our Prayer Guide, we have several resources to help us stay connected to God in prayer. One of these is the SIM By Prayer app, which sends daily prayer requests right to your phone. It includes prayer tracks and Bible verse alerts to remind you of God’s mission to reach people in every nation.
