We collect basic information that allows a Hub Leader to reach out to you and your parents.
A Hub Leader near you reaches out to connect you with prayer training. Keep an eye on your email, and check your junk or spam folder too.
Receive it from your Hub Leader.
Students across your city wear the same shirt, on the same day, with the same message.
When someone scans the QR code on your back or asks about your shirt, offer to pray for them.
We empower Hub Leaders who equip students and distribute shirts. If you are a pastor, leader, or student, we’d love to help equip students in your city using “What If We Prayed?” T-shirts.
Hub Leader Info PacketThe application process
WIWP can start with a few leaders and a few students ready to pray
What would it look like if followers of Jesus across their city all wore a shirt that said “What if we Prayed?” on a single day in their schools? We believe it would be a day of boldness, sharing your faith, power, connection, healing and prayer as the Holy Spirit empowers students.
We equip Hub Leaders, who then equip students with shirts that create prayer and conversations in their schools. Each month we coordinate a day when students wear the same shirt, on the same day, with the same message.
Made for This is Alpha Canada’s prayer initiative, uniting people across the country to pray for Canada’s high schools and the students in them. Everyone who joins WIWP is invited to try Made for This too: choose a couple of schools to pray for and get weekly prayer prompts through the school year.

What we believe about prayer, and where it comes from in Scripture.
Prayer is direct access to God because of Jesus. As followers of Jesus, we believe we can talk to God by praying.
1 John 5:14–15Prayer is drawing on power through Jesus that is beyond ourselves.
Ephesians 3:20Prayer is trusting God with our cares, knowing that he brings peace.
Philippians 4:6–7Prayer is essential for fruitful Christian living.
John 15:4Through prayer, God can do miraculous things.
James 5:16 · Matthew 7:7God can bring healing when we pray.
James 5:14–15While in class, one of my classmates scanned my shirt, so I asked him if he wanted prayer. He said yes, so I was able to pray for him.
Student · Apr 2026In psychology, my teacher asked what my shirt said. She looked up the verse and said it was really encouraging and she really needed to hear that today! God isn’t just moving in students but in teachers too!
Student · Oct 2026One of my Muslim friends came up to me wondering about the shirt. I asked if he wanted me to pray for him and he said yes. He was very thankful for it.
Student · Jun 2026It was vaccine day for us 9th graders, and I had people ask me to pray for them. I never expected that! God is moving in these kids’ lives without me even talking to them.
Student · Nov 2026When 2 of my friends and I went around at lunch asking if people wanted prayer, we got to pray for many people, including a large friend group. I can definitely say that God is moving in our schools!
Student praise reportA guidance counsellor saw my shirt and asked if she could scan it. Soon more counsellors were asking about it, and they all said we need more people like this in our schools.
Student · Jun 2026A staff member that I know well asked about my shirt, then followed up with “I would love if you could pray for me.”
Student praise reportA student known for being loud, and not always in the best way, was shouting Philippians 4:6–7 to the whole class! God was using not only us to share his love today.
Student · Jun 2026Right before period 2, my friend scanned the QR code and showed me what popped up. He didn’t know what to say, so I asked if I could pray for him, and he said yes.

For pastors, parents and students.
Not for students. Shirts are 100% free to students, so anyone can take part without a financial barrier. The cost is covered locally: the church (or churches/youth networks) behind each Hub pays for the shirts for students in their area. WIWP does not pay for churches or Hubs.
WIWP is a national prayer campaign. Locally, it’s led by Hub Leaders who own the vision and values of WIWP and champion getting students involved. Your Hub Leader is your main contact.
Every student completes prayer training, facilitated by their Hub Leader, that equips them to pray in their school. After the training they receive their free shirt.
Yes. In Canada, students are protected by constitutional religious freedoms, and many school staff members take part themselves. If any issue or misunderstanding comes up, students are asked to contact their Hub Leader right away.
That’s okay. Experiences vary each month: a student might pray for no one one month and pray for a teacher the next. We define success as showing up with a willing posture to be bold. God moves when we make ourselves available.
Yes! Students are welcome to wear it any day they like, as long as they also wear it on the monthly shirt days.
No need to worry. Students can reach out to their Hub Leader, who will arrange a replacement at no cost.
Whether you’re a student, parent, pastor or school leader, send us an email and our team will get back to you.
