"Prayer" Lenten Series Talks
"Prayer" Lenten Series Talks
February 22, 2026 12:30 pm - 1:30 pm
Everything You Wanted to Know AboutPrayer…
…but were afraid to ask
(or not interested, didn’t care, etc.).
Feb 22, March 1, 8, 15, 22 Sunday 12:30 pm
(After the 11 amSunday Mass)
This LENT I would like to present a series of talks on PRAYER.
WHY? Simply, if “Prayer” is “God Talk”, maybe we are not talkingthe same language, or not comfortable talking directly, maybe bored, toointellectual, uncomfortable, etc. (fill in the blank _____.)
We will begin with a short Myers-Briggs PersonalityInventory*. Knowing yourPersonality Traits will help you understand better why the different kinds ofPrayer Types and Styles exist and which ones apply to you. For example, if you are a feeling person (F)as opposed to a thinking person (T), maybe you should try prayers of Affectation,rather than Meditation. In otherwords, a feeling person will pray more comfortably if they stay out of their headsand pray more from their heart or feelings.
Some of the other topics that we will cover are below:
+Prayers: PUBLIC or PRIVATE (Public as in Liturgyor Private as in Personal)
+Prayer Types:Meditation, Affectation, Contemplation, etc.
+Fruits of Prayer: Peace, Joy, Presence of God,Unity, etc.
+Prayer Styles: Franciscan, Ignatian, Thomistic, etc.
*Myers-Briggs Personality Inventory:
Introvert/Extrovert, Sensate/I(N)tuitive,Thinker/Feeler, Judger/Perceiver
