Prayer is gift of God. Prayer can allow us to grow in real intimacy with our Creator, Our Redeemer and our ever present Companion, the Holy Spirit.

Together with our living in community and living out our mission, prayer is a vital part of our experience as Sisters of the Catholic Apostolate. Each Sister has the privilege of coming together in communal prayer through morning and evening prayers and daily attendance at Mass. Because the Pallottines value the place of Scripture in our lives, they encourage personal prayer with the Word of God and weekly Scripture sharing with the community.

Each local community of Sisters offers the opportunity for growth in prayer as a way to enhance their relationship with God and with one another. It is through intimacy with God that the Pallottines can serve others and in turn, it is also through serving others that they can come into a deeper union with God. Specifically the major elements of our prayer life are the Eucharist, parts of the Liturgy of the Hours (Divine Office), the practice of the spiritual reading of Scripture, the practice of Lectio Divina in our own prayer life and in our community life when we gather to share the Scriptures.

If you are not overly familiar with these forms of prayer you may want to look at articles we have prepared for your perusal. Some are short, others more in depth so you can find what is best for you.
