PRAYERS OF THE PEOPLE

Spiritual Practices

Praying through music can be a powerful experience where we hear and listen to God differently. As you engage in this practice, invite the Holy Spirit to remind you that as you pray your prayers, you are joining with the voices and prayers of many people across place and time.

PROCESS

1) Begin by listening to the song Prayers of the People. (The video linked above) There are three breaks interspersed throughout the song where you will pray.

2) During the first break, prayer for our world.

3) During the second break, prayer for our country.

4) During the final break, prayer for our community.

5) You may choose to focus on three other categories such as: family, friends, self or thanksgiving, requests, confession.
