# How do I add a prayer request to a registration form?

## Setting up a registration in a group for the purpose of collecting prayer requests in Churchteams

Prayer requests are stored and managed as a Note in Churchteams.  You can assign these prayer request notes to another staff member or leader for follow-up.  On the People Profile, you can view and follow up on Prayer Requests in the Notes section.

#### **Here's how it works**:

#### **First, create a Note Type for the Prayer Requests.**

Go to **People \> Settings \>** **Note** **types** and add a Prayer Request note type, making it visible at the appropriate security level you choose. Here is more information on [Member Notes](https://help.churchteams.com/knowledge/what-are-member-notes-and-how-are-they-used?hsLang=en)to help you set this up.

#### **Next, add the Prayer Request to a Registration Form**.

Do you currently have a group with a registration form where you want to ask for prayer requests?  This is typically a Digital Connection Card.  If you don't already have a group and registration form for this, you'll need to [create the group first, then add a registration](https://help.churchteams.com/knowledge/how-to-set-up-registration-including-payments-0?hsLang=en). 

![Registration \> Settings](https://help.churchteams.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Registration%20%3E%20Settings.png?width=497&height=140&name=Registration%20%3E%20Settings.png)

![Prayer Request added to Registration](https://help.churchteams.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Prayer%20Request%20added%20to%20Registration.png?width=326&height=236&name=Prayer%20Request%20added%20to%20Registration.png)Navigate to the group where you want to add a Prayer Request field to the form.  On that group page,  click the blue **Registration \> Settings**. 

In **Settings section 4 - Form/Event Settings**, scroll down to "**Registration Completion Options**," and choose "Prayer request/note feature," and select your Prayer Request note type from the dropdown options.

 

#### **Share your form to collect prayer requests.**

On that same Registration Settings page, in the group where you collect prayer requests, under Setting Section 1 - Links & Text-to-Church Keyword, you will find links to post your form online or send it by email.  There are also links to embed or create a pop-up of the form on your website.  Lastly, in this section, you can also add a Keyword for people to text and receive back the form for completion. 

![Registration Settings Section 1 - Links & Keyword](https://help.churchteams.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Registration%20Settings%20Section%201%20-%20Links%20%26%20Keyword.png?width=471&height=323&name=Registration%20Settings%20Section%201%20-%20Links%20%26%20Keyword.png)

#### **View the Prayer Requests on the Group Page or in a Report.**

1\. From the group page where you have the Prayer Request Note on a form (the Prayer Request Note can be used in multiple groups): 

![Prayer Request Note in Group View](https://help.churchteams.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Prayer%20Request%20Note%20in%20Group%20View.png?width=561&height=236&name=Prayer%20Request%20Note%20in%20Group%20View.png)

First, go to the Group.  To view prayer requests on the Group page, create a customized [Group View](https://help.churchteams.com/knowledge/how-to?hsLang=en) that includes the Prayer Request note type.  If you want, you can also add a prayer update note (you would need to create that Note Type and have prayer team members use that Note Type when leaving their follow-up notes) to record who prayed and any follow-up information related to that request.

To edit/customize the Group View, from the Group page, click the "Customize Layout" button just below the row of blue buttons at the top, then select "Customize view."  On the Customization page, you can edit the attributes that appear on that particular Group View.  

To create a new Group View, rather than customizing one that other groups may be using, go to **Groups & Events \> Settings \> Group Views**.  Add a new Custom View, then set that as the default in the Group Information settings for a group.

2\. View Prayer Requests in a People Listing Report 

![Select People Listing (with Notes) report type](https://help.churchteams.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Select%20People%20Listing%20(with%20Notes)%20report%20type.png?width=231&height=191&name=Select%20People%20Listing%20(with%20Notes)%20report%20type.png)  
From the main navigation menu, go to **Reports \> New** (once you create this, you can save the report, and the menu path would be Reports \> Saved). 

Next, select the "**People Listing (with Notes**" report. 

 

 

![Member Listing with Prayer Request Notes](https://help.churchteams.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Screenshot%202026-09-28%20at%2012.29.41%20PM.png?width=253&height=428&name=Screenshot%202026-09-28%20at%2012.29.41%20PM.png)

In the Report setup screen, in the Options column, select what you want included in your People Listing (with Notes) report. 

**Check the box at the top of the column to "only include people if they have notes."**  This will limit your report to people with notes (prayer requests) within the date parameters you select, based on the note type (in this case, Prayer Requests) you choose.

Select your date range, note type you want to report on, and any other information you want included.

 

 

 

Once you have made appropriate selections, click the orange Go! button locted in the far right column of the report creation screen.
