What is Prayer?- Prayer is a form of communication, a way of talking to God or to the saints (like a Friend).- The word "pray" comes from the Latin word precari, which simply means to entreat, beg or ask.- “Prayer is the raising of one’s mind and heart to God or the requesting of good things from God” (from

St. John Damascene, CCC 2559). Parts of Prayer

- Adorationo Begin the prayer by adoring God. o Praise and worship HIM. o This is a time for telling God what He means to you and how much you love Him. This is not the

same as Thanksgiving where you thank God for all He has done, but a time to tell God how magnificent/holy/glorious He is, to focus solely on Him, to tell Him all the wondrous beautiful things about Him you love.

- Confession / Contritiono This is when we confess our all our sins to God.o Ask God to bring to mind any sins you may not be aware of so that you may repent and confess.

- Thanksgivingo This is a time for thanking God with the basics such as family, friends, food, shelter, safety,

jobs, health, healing.- Supplication

o This is also known as Intercession.o Example: Lord, guide me as I take the exam

Eucharistic Prayers, Elevation and Consecration, and the Prayer before Communion5. Genuflection – Bending of the RIGHT KNEE to adore God (like a Knight ready to serve). It is done by the Priest

and the people particularly when passing through the Blessed Sacrament6. Orens / Precari Position – Sign of "Asking" and "Petition". Done during the Lord's Prayer (Ama namin)7. Beating the Chest – Sign of humility and sorrow for our sins. Done during Confiteor (Through my fault…)
