Practice of Prayer seminar

Saturday at the Parish of Buckland, the Rectory, Triabunna, saw a group of us gather to explore prayer. An opportunity to learn and share together in prayer and our experiences of prayer.

A highlight was Prayer Walking around the area including the school, a fishing business, homes, the highway, parish land, employment and the ongoing work of the Holy Spirit in the various aspects of the township.

Thank you to Triabunna and Burnie Parishes that have enriched my prayer life through this seminar.
