" A NEW GUARDIAN ."

11/10/2019

Here at the Society of Prayer we have a new guardian in myself .
It is only the Second Guardian we have had as a Society . We are
all very grateful to Sister Bernadette Maria for her ministry in 
founding the Society , and being the first Guardian .

Sometimes people ask us how to pray ? Or are put off joining such a
Society because they feel they do not know how to pray , or are
not experienced in their spiritual life for such an undertaking .

You can come and join us ! We are all learning what it means to be people
of prayer. It is a journey that never ends. It lasts our whole lifetime.
Saint Anthony of the Desert would say " Today I begin again." That is
what we do each day. We wake up and begin again. We wake up, and
start the journey again. This is all it is. Little steps each day.

For those who want advice on how to live out the journey of prayer in their circumstances, 
or how to begin the journey please feel free to email me as Guardian. It is often
simply finding the moments, and times in a day when we can find the time to turn
our hearts to God. It is  not about length of time involved, but our openness to what is
already within us. Or in some cases becoming aware of this dimension of life for the
first time. 

Some members live in a more Hermitage Setting, and some in the midst of busy working lives.
There is room for all paths in our little Society. The important thing is each person begins to walk the path of prayer. Every journey begins with the first few steps.

In the Society of Prayer we  become ever more aware through the passing times and seasons
of each year through the journey of prayer that God is not removed from the events of our daily lives, and the joy and hope, tears, and sometimes suffering, but is in the very midst of them.
Long before we seek God He has already come seeking us, and calling us by name.

Many people point to all the divisions of the Church, and World today. Our Society is simply a sacred space where all can meet to pray, or come asking for prayers, beyond all such divisions. We are a house of prayer for all people and nations. We remember the text in the Gospel often " Where two or three of you are gathered in my name I am there in your midst." 

So let us pray, and pray very much. The presence of Christ is in our midst !
