Teach Us to Pray
We are, more often than we realize, the answer to the prayers spoken so urgently to God. We become the presence of God in a world aching for it.

We are, more often than we realize, the answer to the prayers spoken so urgently to God. We become the presence of God in a world aching for it.
We can find our way out of the rule-ridden weeds and into the spacious place that Love provides. In that place, we get to see what God’s love looks like when it is lived out: like justice for the oppressed. Like freeing others from the forces that enslave them. Like a table big enough for all to be fed.
In the wake of more truth about child abuse in the ranks of the Catholic Church, we are crying out, like Joshua: decide today whom you will serve.
Sign up now to connect with the Jesuit network and learn how you can learn, educate, pray, and advocate for justice year-round.
