Prayer links
It might seem strange to pray at your computer, in front of a screen, especially if there are other people around you, or distracting noises. But God is everywhere, all around us, constantly reaching out to us, even in the most unlikely situations. When we know this, and with a bit of practice, we can pray anywhere!
Our goal is to provide you with a wide variety of resources to assist you in your spiritual journey. If you have a resource that is not here and want to share it with others, please use the e-mail link on the bottom of the page to send it to us.
