You might not see them, but there countless prayers offered up every day in every country. Not just readings from a prayer book but prayers for individuals, many needs in the world. Many who do not or cannot get to a church also pray. Many of the videos on the internet are prayers for understanding and prayer for change in the world.

I asked Grok (an aI on X.com): Muslims pray, many Christians, and others. How many people in the world pray? How many pray each day?

Grok says: Prayer is a common practice across religions, including Islam, Christianity, Hinduism, Buddhism, Judaism, and indigenous faiths, as well as among some non-religious individuals. The World Values Survey (WVS) and European Values Survey (EVS) from 2020 estimate that approximately 50% of people worldwide pray at least a few times per week. With a global population of about 8 billion in 2025, this suggests around 4 billion people engage in prayer at least occasionally.

There are 8.2 Billion in 2025.
