About the Business
The Prayer Tower at Oral Roberts University in Tulsa, Oklahoma is a renowned symbol of the importance of prayer. Located at the heart of the campus, this iconic tower is a place where students and staff can come together to pray, reflect, and seek spiritual guidance.
The newly renovated Prayer Tower features a variety of prayer spaces, including areas for corporate prayer, small-group prayer, and private prayer. A map of the world and a large cross serve as reminders of Christ's sacrifice and the importance of a global perspective in prayer.
Throughout the day, special prayer emphases are identified, allowing participants to pray for specific needs such as the armed services or nations in need. Students also have the opportunity to pray for individual requests submitted to the university from around the world.
Standing at 200 feet tall, the Prayer Tower is a visible reminder that communion with God should always be the focus of life. The Reece Memorial Gardens surrounding the tower feature statues of Jesus and students, emphasizing the importance of seeking God's will in all endeavors.
The observation deck at the top of the tower resembles the Crown of Thorns, with red tips symbolizing the blood of salvation. An eternal flame atop the tower represents the baptism of the Holy Spirit.
Oral Roberts University is committed to providing a welcoming and inclusive environment for students of all backgrounds. Adhering to a policy of non-discrimination, the university ensures that all students have access to the same opportunities and programs.

Reviews
"Beautiful place with a great heritage were something good can happen to you today"
"A must-see place that is both beautiful externally and spiritually meaningful on the inside. Take some time to sit, pray, and admire the beauty of the ORU Prayer Tower!"
"The Prayer Tower is a very attractive place to visit. You may even feel God's peace and presence in this place. The design of the building is not ordinary and beautiful. The park, which is located next to the tower, is also very pleasant for a walk."
"I have not been inside the grounds of this university (I think), but the artwork was amazing and I am glad that I drove by This one is by far the best art"
"We drove over for a tour after verifying hours, only to find that it closed at 3:00 during the summer instead of the posted and phone verified 5:00. We arrived at 3:05PM. We took photos of the exterior, but we were disappointed that we were unable to go inside. I would have thought the university would clearly post and articulate online any changes to its hours."
