GATHERING AS GOD’S PEOPLE
Welcome
Greeting Your Neighbor
Call
to Worship
Reflecting
on Buddy Prayers (last week’s prayer
practice):
◦ Did
you try this practice beyond last Sunday morning?
If so, how did it go? If not, why
not?
◦
As you prayed this way, did God seem closer or farther than usual?
◦ Did
this way of praying bring out an aspect of God, yourself, or the world
that
you sometimes miss?
◦ Do
you think you’d like to pray this way more often?
◦ Would
you recommend this prayer practice to a friend?
