A Three-Part Educational Webinar Series
Deepen your prayer life. Strengthen your leadership. Enrich your community.
Join us for an inspiring three-part online series designed to help lay leaders and church members explore how prayer shapes and sustains both personal faith and congregational life. Each interactive webinar offers a distinct perspective on prayer—its theology, creativity, and leadership in community—guided by gifted Moravian educators and leaders.
Participants are welcome to attend one session, two, or the entire series—each webinar stands on its own while also building toward a fuller understanding of prayer in the life of the church.

Join us for an engaging webinar that explores the foundations of prayer and its various expressions. Together we’ll look at different types of prayer and examine how each can deepen our spiritual lives. Participants will learn simple, practical ways to begin or enrich their own prayer practice.

Led by Becky Lepore & the Rev. Mikayla Sauerbrey

Session 3: Prayers for Worship
Led by the Rev. Dr. Riddick Weber
