Sometimes we find ourselves at a loss for the right way to pray with others, whether in happy, sad or even tragic situations. These prayers can offer a template for creativity or a ready-made outline of what to pray and in which situation. The more-than-fifty prayers contained in this app are split into five groups, covering different pastoral settings: joy, transition, caring, emotion, and crisis. Each group of prayers concludes with one which focuses on a particular aspect of God’s loving nature. By keeping this collection close at hand on phones or tablets, visitors will be equipped with the confidence needed both to provide a ready-made prayer for a wide range of challenging settings and – as importantly – to start constructing their own prayers based upon what they find here.
