Thus began "Practicing Prayer" at Grace Episcopal Church in Norwalk, Connecticut. Practicing Prayer has been going on, once a month, for over two years now. It began with people who felt they just weren't getting their prayers right and could the priest help them.
The first lesson was: There is no right way to pray.
The second lesson was: God prays through us.
Over the years we have learned, together, supporting one another, that prayer, the way we pray, can change over time.
There is no one, absolutely right way to pray. There is just the desire to pray, which in itself is prayer, through which God can make our lives the prayer of God for others and ourselves.
What does it mean to you, to pray?
