For the next eight weeks, we are going to be focusing on learning more about how prayer can help us calm and center ourselves in a world that feels increasingly chaotic. Jesus had a rich prayer life. Whether it was public prayers and blessings or private prayers on the mountain or in the garden, praying was a deeply connecting practice for him. Sometimes prayer can be a bit abstract for us. We may not be sure about incorporating it into our lives. That’s ok. Jesus’ disciples weren’t sure either and so they asked him to help them. He gave his disciples a template for ways to relate to God in prayer. In this new worship series, we are going to sink deep into the “when, where, what, and why” of prayer as Jesus showed his disciples.
All participants will be gifted with a prayer bead strand that we will be using in our worship and at home as we learn to regulate our nervous systems by connecting to God in a tangible way. Prayer beads are part of our Christian and Protestant tradition and, more broadly, part of the human tradition.
I hope you will join us when you can over the next eight weeks of this series.
