Guelph Ecumenical Week of Guided Prayer

Enrich your spiritual life.

The Week of Guided Prayer is an opportunity to learn more about prayer, explore your spirituality, and develop and deepen a relationship with God.

In uncertain times we may find ourselves needing hope and resilience more than ever.

It's a rich journey of discovery, listening, and renewed hope. 

Guided prayer and spiritual exploration are about developing, deepening and exploring a relationship with God.  Listening, reflection and awareness are at the heart of this week.  The Week of Guided Prayer and Spiritual Exploration  is an experiential event.  

During the week you will be paired with an experienced prayer guide who will suggest specific ways to meet God meaningfully, and guide you in various spiritual practices. 

The week is a gift you give to yourself and God.

You will meet daily for about 30 minutes with your guide, who will provide you with scripture passages, poems or stories, art activities and/or meditations for you to explore or pray with at home between meetings. You may wish to journal or capture your experiences in some way, and share as you wish with your guide.

This year meetings with your guide will be held online (Zoom, Facetime, etc.) or by telephone. No meetings will be in person.

Your confidential meetings with your guide are held in sacred trust, with the purpose of developing, deepening and exploring your relationship with God.
