Vertical Conversations With God

Praying and fasting for Holy Spirit-filled conversations with God through prayer and reading His Word


What is Vertical?

Vertical began in 2022 as 40 Days of Prayer to pray – that God would pour out His Holy Spirit among us and give us a vision for how we can reach lost men and women and boys and girls for His kingdom. We were impressed to pray in unity every year.


In 2023, we began the new year with 31 days of prayer for renewal. Then in September, we invited all in Upper Columbia Conference to fast and pray. And on September 15 we began 10 days of 24 hour prayer. Out of this experience a morning prayer room has continued from 5-7 a.m. daily. (see the calendar at https://www.uccsda.org/prayer for the daily link)


In 2024 UCC Prayer Ministries invites you to begin the year with Ten Days of fasting and prayer for more reading of God's Word and more prayer so that all can experience a real and daily conversation with God!

We invite you to read the Bible through this year,  through your church, on your own, or through our Conversations With God Prayer Calendar.

UCC in the Word will also have resources for reading the Bible through this year. (https://www.uccsda.org/intheword)
