This Sunday, October 2nd, Pastor John begins a new series entitled, Teach Us To Pray. Prayer is something we've probably all done at least a few times in our life - perhaps in the midst of a crisis or an emergency. We privately wonder if someone, up there, actually hears it, and more importantly, will they or can they do anything about it.  Can we actually communicate with God? If we can, how do we do it? Can prayer really make a difference? We are not alone in our questions about prayer. In fact, one of Jesus's disciples came to him and asked him to teach them how to pray. His answer is what we commonly call the Lord's Prayer. Over the next six weeks we will examine the Lord's Prayer and how it can help and encourage us today. I hope you will join me in unwrapping the answer to one of life's most important questions. It all begins this Sunday!
