Prayer

There are a range of prayer cards available in church including prayers for times of solitude and loneliness, prayers for times of trial, prayers for courage, prayers for times of fear, prayers for those who feel betrayed, prayers for acts of betrayal, prayers of repentance, prayers for the broken-hearted and prayers for times of joy. They can also be dowloaded using the button below.

There are lots of tools out there. The Church of England produces a daily prayer app which you can download to your smartphone. It provides Morning, Evening and Night Prayer in both traditional and contemporary formats. There are also manuals you can buy (hardcopy or kindle). For example, The Divine Hours is a manual for the contemporary exercise of fixed-hour prayer which traces the physical rather than the liturgical seasons of the year and are dated from the Sunday of each week of calendar. There are also simple books to help create the habit of prayer. Books such as The Plain Man’s Book of Prayers contain short morning and evening prayers and a bible reading for 30 days.
