Come
Holy Spirit,
fill the hearts of your faithful
and kindle in them the fire of your love.
Send forth your Spirit and they shall be created

renew the face of the earth.
Amen.
John 17:1-11a
Prayer is our communication with God and our awareness of God all around us. This communication and awareness may take many kinds of expressions: verbal, actions, reflection, or silence!
Prayer is our main way of building our relationship with Jesus. The closer we grow to Jesus, the more our prayer will change. It will grow deeper and more personal.
Prayer is an attitude; we can turn anything into prayer if we invite Jesus into our hearts, thoughts, actions and motivation. Even studying, working on chores, or playing with friends is prayer when we do it for Jesus.
