The Saints Were Prompted to Pray. Are YOU?

April 18, 2023 by Monica McConkey Leave a Comment

There are so many ways to pray! We have such a rich tradition of classic prayers and devotions, but we can also speak spontaneously to God in familial conversation. We are told by Jesus and by St. Paul to pray without ceasing and yet we are easily distracted and sometimes forget to pray.
