Praying Online

The Internet can be a place to pray. The links below offer three different tools for opening up space in your life to connect with and listen to God.

• Jesuits in the U.K. have created a Web site providing downloadable MP3 "podcasts" of daily prayer and scripture meditation (similar to Lectio) as well as a "Review of the Day" (similar to the Examen), all accompanied by beautiful music: http://www.pray-as-you-go.org/

• A group in England has compiled scripture and historical, traditional readings to encourage worldwide Christians to pray the Daily Office ~ prayers for morning, noon, evening, and bedtime: http://www.northumbriacommunity.org/PraytheOffice/index.html

• For anyone who wants to be more deliberate in praying for people and specific requests, MyPrayerTeam.com has created an electronic "reminder" system for partnering friends and family who want to lift up each others' requests regularly: http://www.myprayerteam.com/
