Prayer is at the heart of our relationship with God, but learning to pray can sometimes feel difficult or overwhelming. The Prayer Course is an eight-week journey designed to help us grow and deepen our prayer lives together.

Book: Each participant will need to purchase a copy of How to Pray: A Simple Guide for Normal People to read alongside the sessions. The book will provide additional reflection and material to help you engage with each week.

Each week, we’ll explore a different aspect of prayer as we explore the Lord’s prayer.
