Daily Prayer: How, What, Why
Prayer is the lifeblood of our relationship with God. But how do we actually pray, especially when time is short and words are lacking? In this three-session class, Canon Bradley Varnell will help participants find both the time to pray and the words to pray by introducing the Episcopal Church’s liturgies for daily prayer. Participants will be guided in using these liturgies on their own and together we’ll reflect on the challenges (and gifts) of daily prayer. Those looking to establish a regular rhythm of prayer are especially encouraged to attend, but all are welcome – no matter how long (or short) you’ve been praying. Sundays April 12-26, 10AM, in the McGehee Conference Room.
