12:53Now PlayingIn 2017, Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg stated that the company would focus on religion and religious communities for "faith partnership." In December 2020, Facebook started rolling out its "I Prayed" button tool for Facebook groups in the United States. In June 2021, Hillsong, a global megachurch organization, opened its new church in Atlanta, GA. Before the church's opening, Sam Collier, Hillsong's Senior Pastor, received an offer from Facebook where they would be allowed to use Hillsong's followers in a case study on how Facebook can better help churches. Facebook's plan is not just to offer a "prayer tool" but to become the online "home" of these religious communities. With the coming of the Covid Pandemic, Nona Jones, the head of Faith Partnerships with Facebook, said they've ramped up the work on the "prayer products," which included the "I Prayed" button.
