“Take heart, life is on your side. You do not pray to withstand the blows
of life. You pray to be receptive to the holy generosity of the Spirit that wants to
shine itself through, and as you.” ~ Rev. Michael Beckwith

Sonnet of Desire
The Teacher promised me we could do as he,
“Greater things than I,” is what he said.
So why call out for help on bended knee
when we can heal the sick and break the bread?
The God to whom I prayed no longer dwells
on white celestial clouds aloft in space
Against this childish notion I rebel,
rejecting, too, the lie we fell from grace.
Like children letting go of false beliefs
we bid farewell to creeds that we were taught
to wear the robes of healers and of priests
admitting we are one with what we sought.
If this we’d do with tenderness and grace
what hope would rain upon our human race.
~ Jan Phillips
“Prayer is both a skill and an art, and, in a certain sense, it is the mental
process through which spiritual Power flows into your everyday living.
Prayer hooks up the dynamo of the mind with the Power greater than
you are. It is your line of communion to It.” ~ Ernest Holmes

These beautiful quotes and poem contain invitations for all of us to explore our prayer life. In our conversations and processes about prayer, each of us have the opportunity to see what God has in mind for us. We are guided by our Sunday Evening Services team, Elias Owens, Peggy Weber and Maggie Cole.
The conversation begins at 7 pm online
