Canada In Prayer began in 1998 as a network of individual intercessors and prayer groups. The goal then, as it is today, is to provide Canadians here and overseas with a forum focused on strategic prayer for renewal and revival - first in our churches and then in our nation.

The strategy for this unique alliance was set forth in the 'Vancouver Agreement'.

The agreement was biblically anchored on 2 Chronicles 7: 14. It was a call to the body of Christ to be aligned in prayer and fasting for our nation on the first Friday of every month. Individuals, prayer groups and churches were to be informed of provincial and national prayer requests by an email network and a web page.
