Welcome!  My name is Laurie Stock.  I am on staff at the "International House of Prayer" ("IHOP") in Kansas City.  IHOP is primarily a prayer ministry.  IHOP's Prayer Room has had live, non-stop prayer and worship for nearly 10 years now.  The worship never ceases.

Currently there are about 1000 people (mostly young adults) on staff at IHOP, whose primary job or ministry it is to pray and intercede and "stand before the Lord"; and secondly to fulfill all the various roles that it takes to maintain a 24/7 prayer meeting-- musicians, singers, sound and lighting, administration, cleaning, maintenance, ushering, etc.  Beyond the prayer room, there are various conferences and outreaches (local, national, and abroad).

There are also roughly 1000 students and interns partaking in the various training and discipleship programs offered by IHOP.

I count it a great blessing to be a part of such a ministry and surrounded by peers of such a caliber.  This site is my way of introducing you to my life here and to the prayer room, and is a means of keeping in touch with friends, family, and supporters.
