Try Praying

The Try praying booklet is a seven day prayer guide for people who are not religious and an invitation to receive God’s loving kindness. It begins with the words, “God, if you are there….” and helps you to pray about what is important to you. You can pick up a booklet on the railings in front of our church-why not get one for yourself and one for a friend?
