The San Jose (International) House of Prayer - SJHOP - was established on January 1st, 2006. It was raised up as a house of prayer to contend with every thing that challenges the Lordship, kingdom and supremacy of Christ over all affairs.
The SJHOP is a community of young and old who seek to lift a continuous (24/7) cry of worship and intercession for and out of our city and nation.
The main foundation of all that is done at SJHOP is to pour out our extravagant love in intimacy and devotion to Jesus Christ who is worthy of all praise and adoration. At the same time, a unique and defining characteristic of SJHOP is governmental, education and marketplace transformation of our city (and beyond after we’ve experienced it here in our city) as delineated by the 1 Timothy 2 mandate.
True reformation, revival, and revolution in our Silicon Valley will only be born out of a spiritual shift and this can only occur when we have altered the spiritual atmosphere and power structure through sustained prayer and fasting. And to that end, we seek to establish the SJHOP.
A mobile ministry team: The SJHOP core team will also minister in the marketplace (businesses, government offices, streets, schools, hospitals and different gatherings) taking the glory of the Lord, like the moveable Ark of the Covenant, through worship, prayer and the Word of God.
SJHOP is in partnership and blessing of: Bay Area Network of Youth Leaders, San Francisco House of Prayer, Berkley House of Prayer, Santa Clara County Canopy of Prayer, Bay Area Canopy of Prayer, Campus Church Network, Pray South Bay, Transformation Alliance of Santa Clara County, Community Pregnancy Center and Living Stones Foundation.
