Nurturing Relational Connections Across Boston's Christian Community
Jesus said to go and make disciples of all the nations.
The Boston Navigators are building a network of believers who desire to grow in knowledge and skill as disciplemakers.
We meet quarterly in different locations to offer practical content, real life stories, and the opportunity to build friendships and partnerships in ministry. This quarter we are focusing on disciplemaking in our neighborhoods.
The cost is free but we ask that you register. Breakfast snacks and coffee will be provided.
‘I’m tired of praying; I never get an answer.’
‘I don’t have enough hope to pray.’
‘I don’t know how to pray!’
These and many other thoughts may have crossed all of our minds. Prayer is at the heart of our call as Christians, but many Christians find it the most mysterious spiritual practice. How can lay leaders and clergy inspire their congregations to pray? How should we pray as a group or as individuals?
Please join The St. Paul Center (TSPC) to explore this important question together, in honest and open conversation. All are welcome – clergy and lay, Episcopalians, seekers, and ecumenical friends, experienced prayer warriors and those who feel like beginners. Our day will include teaching, conversation, reflection, and of course prayer! All participants will leave with materials to bring back to their congregation, to continue the conversation and learning.
Our ‘Why Pray?’ days will be hosted at St. Paul’s Newburyport, St. Thomas’ Taunton, and the Cathedral Church of St. Paul Boston, July 27th, 10am to 2.30pm. You are warmly invited to join us at whichever location works for you! Tea and coffee will be served at the start of the day, and you are invited to bring a packed lunch.
