Learning To Pray
Most people have never done an extended time of prayer such as a prayer retreat.
For first timers even the suggestion can be intimidating. We seek to minister to
the novice pray-er. Our goal is to teach, or rather coach, you in spending intimate
time alone with God.
Training Manual & Workbook
We have a training manual and workbook to guide you each step of your day
of prayer, with workbooks and exercises that help you pray. We also include a free
library of books on prayer that help coach you in your area of need, as well as
Scripture on tape and CD to soak you mind in the Word. We provide some CD players and
cassette tape of quiet worshipful music to aid your private expressions to God.
Silent Retreat
This is primarily a silent retreat, that is, you need not fear having to pray outloud
or in public. We are together, but we are alone with God.

This is my personal style for an ordered and disciplined time of extended prayer.
There will be some who find it difficult or unrewarding to be so disciplined.
In that case you need to develop your own style. Just be sure that it keeps you praying.
