How about those 15 minutes of prayer?
Last week, we discussed what prayer is, why we should pray, common myths about prayer, and what is needed to pray (e.g. conversion, humility, good disposition, and perseverance). We closed with 15 minutes of prayer, and encouraged the youth to set aside 15 minutes each day with the Lord.
This week, we're picking up where we left off by discussing the three types of prayer: vocal, meditative, and contemplative. We'll also introduce and explore common forms of prayer. Come dressed to play!
Looking forward to seeing Carpe Diem from 4-6pm and Vita Nova from 6:30-8:30pm!

You don't need to be qualified, you don't need to know what's happening, all you need is to feel called by the Lord! Remember, your youth may not want you there, but they NEED you to witness a real relationship with Jesus to them.
