When Young People Pray is a prayer movement led by Dr. Kofi Dartey and Dr. Ralph Dartey II. It carries an international mandate to bring youth and young adults to the place of prayer.
When Young People Pray is a prayer and revival movement. It began virtually and grew into revival meetings in cities across North America, Africa and Europe.
The goal of every tour stop is to ignite a fire in the city that sparks a revival long after the event ends.
