joint prayer
Praying with others
Joint prayer is prayer performed together by two or more people, whether spoken aloud in unison, led by one person while others follow, or offered silently in shared presence.
The practice appears across religious traditions as a way to strengthen community bonds and amplify spiritual intention: The congregation gathered for joint prayer, They began the meeting with joint prayer.
