FALL - 2024 - October 8th - December 3rd When You Pray - Click for more info.
Cultivate a Rich and Lasting Prayer Life - Join us this Fall for When You Pray…a new study from Ascension Press.
You know prayer is important but still find it challenging. Perhaps it’s hard to find time, or you’re unsure what to do when you pray. You are not alone with this dilemma. Many of the saints struggled in prayer, but each time they failed, they got up again and learned to rely more on God’s grace.
What God did in the lives of countless saints, he wants to do in the lives of ordinary people like us. And that’s what this study is about: the journey of prayer God wants to take us on. It is authored and presented by Dr. Edward Sri, but it also features Fr. Jacques Philippe, Fr. Josh Johnson, Fr. Gregory Pine, Sister Josephine Garrett, Fr. Donald Haggerty, and Sister Maris Stella.
When You Pray will be offered in seven Tuesday evening sessions in the Parish Hall beginning on October 8th and ending December 3rd, 7-8:30 pm. To purchase the study set in advance, please email Bob Morris at robertemorris50@gmail.com. The cost for the study set which includes a book and a workbook is $26.95 plus shipping. Everyone is welcome, whether or not you purchase a study set you can come to every session!
