Every first Saturday of the month, from 9:00 to 10:00 AM, volunteers across Chicago gather near a local school to pray for its students, staff, and families.
.What started as a local prayer walk has grown into a citywide network of houses of worship, trained site teams, and everyday volunteers committed to covering every school in Chicago — and eventually, every city that wants to bring P.A.T.S. home.
Search by address or ZIP code to find the school nearest you and its host house of worship.
P.A.T.S. (Prayer Around The Schools) began with a simple belief: schools are stronger when a community stands behind them.
