The Five “P’s” of Prayer Prepare–Spontaneous yes, but deep prayer

needs effort, planningPlace- Maybe Church, need a quiet place, un

distracted. God speaks in silencePosture– Kneeling, sitting, lying down, comfortablePassage- Start with Gospel. A passage or a scene, not the whole GospelPresence– Try to “feel” God’s presence with

you. Be present to God. If distracted, that’s ok. Just come

back to your moment of prayer.
