ABSOLUTELY! Prayer support is just as important as financial support. Jesus and the disciples modeled both of these in their ministry. They often asked for prayers and support to meet their physical needs.
What if it all goes wrong?
There is no one way to do support raising. Support raising is a God ask, not a human ask. Humans can’t do it, but God can. It also strengthens everyone’s faith, the giver and the missionary. Trusting Him through the process is the best way to succeed!
What are some books that might help in understanding support raising?

Funded Missionary by Rob Parker More Than Money, More Than Faith by Paul Johnson, PhD Never Do Fundraising Again by Ken and Gaylyn Williams
