How do we help children develop a meaningful and lasting prayer life? Join author L. Roger Owens for an interactive online retreat inspired by Praying Their Way, co-written with his daughter, Mary Clare Owens.
Together, we'll explore simple, creative prayer practices designed to help children connect with God while also deepening our own spiritual lives. Whether you're a parent, grandparent, caregiver, church leader, educator, or someone who cares about nurturing faith in the next generation, this retreat will offer practical tools and fresh inspiration for praying with and alongside children.
Roger Owens will guide us through a time of reflection and discovery, giving us the opportunity to explore and practice different ways to pray that can nurture the faith of the children we love. It will be a special time you don’t want to miss.
