Little Prayer Tea Company is a family-owned Christian tea business on a mission to spread God's Word and encourage prayer through tea. A little prayer appears on the back of every tea package, and our Bible Verse collection also pairs tea with Scripture. We hope each cup creates an opportunity to slow down, pray, and encourage someone else.

Giving back is part of our heart. With each purchase, we contribute to ministries, families, and non-profits — both near and far. It’s an act of gratitude, and we believe that when you choose our teas, you're part of something that blesses others. If you would like to find out more about how we give back, visit here.

Yes — the devotions, scripture pairings, and reflections on our site are wrought from our own hearts. They are meant to offer rest, encouragement, and spiritual nourishment as much as our teas offer physical refreshment.

Faith is the heart of our mission. We want each cup to be a moment of connection, encouragement, and prayer. That's why there's a little prayer on the back of every tea package, and why we offer Scripture-inspired gifts and devotional content.

God meets us in small moments. Try making one cup a day without rushing: set aside your device, pray, read a verse, observe the aroma, taste slowly. Let tea become a reminder of His rest. Our devotions are here to help guide you in those moments.

Every tea has a story — our teas are imported from places like India, Japan, China, Taiwan, among others. We believe in honoring the soil, the growers, and the journey from leaf to cup.

Our packaging designs may vary between products, sizes, and existing inventory as we update them. Every tea package includes a little prayer on the back, and our Bible Verse tea collection also features Scripture.

Yes — many of our blends are naturally caffeine-free, especially our herbal and rooibos teas. If you're avoiding caffeine, look for the Caffeine Free section of our shop for peace and rest in every cup.

Tea generally contains about ⅓ to ½ the caffeine of a cup of coffee. While coffee tends to be 100-120 mg per 8 oz, most teas fall between 20-50 mg, depending on the type. We always recommend starting with lighter options if you're sensitive.

Keep your loose-leaf tea in a dry, airtight container away from heat, strong odors, moisture, and direct sunlight. Proper storage helps preserve aroma and flavor.

Tea itself doesn’t “go bad” in the way food does, but it does lose flavor and aroma over time. We suggest enjoying loose leaf teas within a year or so of purchase when stored well. Herbal teas (tisanes) may have shorter best-by windows. Multiple steeps are often still delightful with many of our teas.

While we provide specific instructions on each package, here are some general guidelines to help you brew the perfect cup. Most importantly, we encourage you to brew your tea with intention—take a few deep breaths, say a little prayer, and allow the moment to be 'Faithfully Refreshing'.

• Black Teas: Use water just off the boil (around 200-212°F or 93-100°C) and steep for 3-5 minutes.
• Green Teas: Use cooler water (around 160-180°F or 71-82°C) to avoid bitterness. Steep for just 1-3 minutes.
• White Teas: Similar to green teas, use water between 170-185°F (76-85°C) and steep for 2-4 minutes for a delicate flavor.
• Herbal Teas (Tisanes): These are quite forgiving. Use boiling water (212°F or 100°C) and steep for 5-7 minutes to fully infuse the flavors.
• Rooibos Teas: Like herbal teas, use boiling water and steep for 5-7 minutes. Rooibos is naturally caffeine-free and won't become bitter if steeped longer.

Many of our teas can be re-steeped, yielding lovely evolving flavors with each steep. Herbal blends often give best flavor the first steep or two. Feel your way — sometimes a second or third steep gives unexpected blessings.

Yes! We have sample pouches so you can explore new flavors without committing to a large amount. We want you to find teas that soothe your soul and bring joy.

Our blends use a variety of ingredients and flavorings, including natural flavors in many teas and artificial flavoring in some. Please check the individual product's ingredient list for the most accurate information. If you have sensitivities or questions about a particular blend, get in touch before purchasing.

We specialize in loose leaf teas and matcha. Matcha is ground leaf from whole tea plants, prepared differently than steeped loose leaf — more intense, and deeply nourishing in its ritual. Each product description will note what kind it is.
