WAVERLEY ABBEY

The Waverley Abbey estate in Farnham has been a site of prayer and monasticism for more than a thousand years. Now, 24-7 Prayer and CWR are coming together to form Waverley Abbey Trust on the site, to renew the ancient Abbey as a House of Prayer for all nations.

The site of Waverley Abbey will become a place of:

Encounter: A House of Prayer for the Nations
Education: A Christian university
Enterprise: An incubator of ethical businesses
Engagement: A centre of missional engagement

The Waverley Community hosts onsite and online prayer and runs a number of retreats, learning communities, internships and events. Book the Prayer Room, Shepherd’s Hut or find the about the Remembering Garden here and click here for events.


When our community was founded in mid 2006 (originally as Guildford Boiler Room and later Emmaus Rd Church), one of its foundational visions was to be a ‘House of Prayer to all nations’. Therefore we are so excited, that as a church which was born out of the 24-7 Prayer movement, we are partnering with the House of Prayer and encourage you to get involved!
