Friends, I'm forever encouraging you to pray and endeavor to provide you with resources and tools to help you. And so I am delighted to be able to share with you a new prayer book entitled "Together We Pray."
It's a newly published prayer collection inspired by a woman of the Reformation era and written by contemporary women in countries across The Lutheran World Federation (LWF). It contains prayers written by lay and ordained women, young and old, theologians, leaders, students and activists in many areas of church life. It is structured around the words of the Lord’s Prayer and is inspired by the work of Katharina Schütz Zell, a 16th century woman who played an important role in the Reformation movement. A prolific writer and outspoken voice for social justice, she wrote a meditation on the Lord’s Prayer to comfort a friend suffering from illness and loneliness.
The prayer book celebrates the spiritual wisdom, resilience, and theological insights that women bring to the life of the church.
You can download the PDF for free at the link. I will be praying these prayers and I hope you will join me.
