If you haven’t already seen it, the September/October 2013 edition of Interpreter magazine (published by United Methodist Communications) features an article titled “Practices of the Ancients Aid Modern Prayers.” It is a wonderful article that talks about the benefits of contemplative prayer, and includes an interview with me on prayer beads.
As a follow-up to the article, The Upper Room and Interpreter magazine are offering free “Teach Us to Pray” webinars. The next two webinars are:
- Thursday, September 26 at 7:00pm CDT: Ancient Prayer Practices – looking at the Jesus Prayer and body prayer and the use of labyrinths and Protestant prayer beads.
- Tuesday, October 22 at 7:00pm CDT: Prayer Practices for Today – looking at intercessory prayer with The Upper Room’s Living Prayer Center, prayer journals and the prayer of examen.

I will be one of the presenters for the September 26th webinar. I would love to have you join me!
The beads have arrived safe and sound. They are lovely! Thank you again for a great book. I hope to sign up for the wed programs. Take care now…
Loved your presentation Saturday at St. Mark UMC Seneca! Enjoying exploring with my prayer beads.
Thanks, Carolyn! I had such a wonderful time with y’all Saturday! I’m so happy to know you are enjoying your prayer beads! Peace, Kristen
