As we close out the 2025–26 school year, our hearts are overflowing with gratitude for all God has done through Operation PRAY. What began as simple obedience — showing up on public sidewalks near our high schools to pray with students — has grown into a movement of hope, Scripture, and the love of Jesus reaching thousands.


This year, 135 volunteers from 49 churches faithfully adopted schools, prayed on campuses, and shared Christ’s love with students and staff. Because of their commitment, over 10,000 high school students were personally prayed with — a very, conservative number — across 40 California campuses, plus 5 additional schools in North Carolina, Alabama, Oregon, and Florida.


Lives Transformed

We rejoice that hundreds of students accepted Jesus as Savior and invited Him into their hearts. These are not just numbers — they are sons and daughters, future leaders, and young people discovering the hope of the Gospel.



God’s Word in Students’ Hands

Thanks to the generosity of donors and the boldness of volunteers:

  • 350+ Bibles were placed directly into students’ hands

  • 1,500+ Life Books (the Gospel of Mark) were shared on campuses

  • Countless conversations opened doors for prayer, encouragement, and discipleship

Every Bible and Life Book represents a seed planted — and God is already bringing fruit.


Prayer Taking Root on Campuses

Our teams were invited into 11 Christian club gatherings, where they taught students how to pray, shared testimonies, and encouraged them to pray for one another. These moments sparked courage, unity, and spiritual hunger among hundreds of students. We witnessed a new trend this year of Christian students activating their faith and joining our prayer teams.


A Year Worth Celebrating

Every conversation, every prayer, every Bible handed out, every student who said “yes” to Jesus — it all happened because volunteers showed up and donors made the mission possible.

We give God all the glory for:

  • Students receiving the love of Jesus through our Prayer Teams

  • Students activating their faith in clubs, praying for classmates and hosting outreach events on their campus

  • Churches uniting to adopt local schools

  • Lives transformed by the Gospel



Thank You for Making This Possible

To our volunteers: thank you for your faithfulness, your courage, and your love for students.

To our donors: thank you for fueling this mission with generosity and prayer.

To everyone who has stood with us: you are part of every story God wrote this year.

And we’re just getting started!
