“What I am trying to say is that God receives us just as we are and accepts our prayers just as they are. In the same way that a small child cannot draw a bad picture so a child of God cannot offer a bad prayer.” ---Richard J. Foster

Prayer is essential to a life of faith, yet many worry about the correct way to do it, or wonder if their prayers can actually be answered. The good news is that God meets us where we are in our prayer efforts, and God knows our hearts and our needs even before we ask. 

At MDUMC we hope to cultivate a vibrant community life of shared prayer and equip you to deepen your personal experience of prayer. Join us!
