Modern Prayer Traditions. 11:15 a.m., Fullerton Room. Traditions around Christian prayer and worship practices have evolved over two centuries, but some traditions and texts have continued to be meaningful for believers of all traditions. This class will consider the origins of prayers like the Prayer of St. Francis, and prayer practices such as those created by Ignatius of Loyola, as well as modern prayers that have been meaningful for generations of Christians, like the Serenity Prayer. The Rev. Rebecca Kirkpatrick will lead this conversation.
