LightUp Nations: PrayerWalk for Change
The Call: Step out. Lift up. Speak life. Carry light.
LightUp Nations is a Spirit led mobilisation of believers from all nations and backgrounds, united to lift our neighbourhoods, streets, schools, and institutions before God in humility, faith, and unity. We prayerfully walk through our communities, releasing the power of God’s Word and Spirit for revival, healing, and transformation.
Whether you love walking, strolling, or cycling through woods, fields, busy city streets, along the beach, or through neighbourhoods, we believe this simple act can become deeply impactful and insightful. It becomes an avenue to stir spiritual awakening, helping people connect with God inwardly and outwardly, as His presence flows like a river across the nations of the earth.

On the prayer walk 3 years ago we were walking along Pleinmont Road and one of the things that I felt strongly on my heart was to pray for a resurgence of local producers growing quality food for the island, that the island would become more connected to god and his creation by increased appreciation for and connection to the land and how food is produced. This became the main theme for my prayers on the walk. A couple of years later I visited a small farm - Rowan Tree Farm, which has opened up recently on Pleinmont Road, where we walked. It felt like a wonderful coming into being of the prayers and declarations we made. The farm is focused on producing high quality organic food for local people and caring for the land. The owners (Jack and his wife) were welcoming and generous with their knowledge, since I am also growing on a small scale. There was no sense of completion but a shared desire to see a vibrant community of healthy people eating great food, connected to nature and enjoying creation.
Praying that every step taken on this walk will be a step taken to reclaim his land for his purpose to bring about a rich inheritance of faith!
As we were walking by Princess Elizabeth hospital in Guernsey, I saw a picture of a big key which was needed to unlock the situation with the hospital and education funding. I knew we needed to pray that God will unlock the situation.
As we were walking by the Methodist church in St Martins parish, I saw a church full of glowing light, and darkness in the surrounding environment. I saw men and women in chains who were attracted and drawn towards the church. As they walk towards and got closer to the church, their chains began to break.
As we walked past areas of enjoyment like pubs, shops, tourist attractions, and although all good things, they will not bring ultimate happiness. The island needs a priority shift to focus more on God who can provide for us and give us living hope.

It was a real joy to be involved in a prayer walk in St Peter Port and Fermain Valley with Christians from other churches on the Island. A particular joy was praying with Christians from other countries – it felt like a Global Village Prayer Walk and a taste of heaven!
It was good to connect with people from other island churches and complete the walk together and pray together. Also, that gathering at the end was fantastic and there was some great feedback and contributions from each of the routes walked. A real sense of how we had all been part of the chain which linked up across the island in prayer walk routes.
