The Heart of Prayer Speaker: Lori Borgman

For a Chris an, prayer should be as rou ne as breathing. And yet the rou ne o en becomes mundane, the mundane starts to languish and once you reach that point, you’re not far from weak and anemic. Weak and anemic don’t win ba les; the hale and hearty do. Join the women of Zionsville Fellowship for a “Heart of Prayer” retreat. Lori Borgman, a member of Zionsville Fellowship, will take us on a hale and hearty jaunt through scripture examining why we pray, how prayer makes a difference and praying beyond the “bless me and mine” prayers. Come prepared to think, laugh, pray, sing, meet new people, enjoy good conversa on and, most of all, refresh your perspec ve on prayer.
