The Prayer Dashboard centralizes prayer requests from staff, members, and scanned prayer cards — track active needs, mark answered prayers, and moderate what appears on the public prayer wall.
Prayer Requests dashboard with status tabs and request cards

Quick Start

  2. On the Requests tab, review active, answered, and public counts.
  3. Click New Prayer Request to log a need manually.
  4. Change Status to Answered when God provides — answered_at is stamped automatically.
  5. Switch to Prayer Cards to bulk-scan or review submitted cards.

How-to Guide

Requests tab

Cards show thumbnails when a photo attachment exists (e.g., from prayer card intake).

Prayer Cards tab

When your church collects physical prayer cards:
  1. Open Prayer Cards and use Bulk Capture to photograph multiple cards.
  2. Review the Pending queue — OCR and staff review turn cards into structured requests.
  3. Approve or edit before they join the main request list.
