Prayer of Protest Code:TA11 Start Time:Thursday, August 17, 2017 11:00 AM End Time:Thursday, August 17, 2017 12:30 PM Available:30 Fee Amount:$0.00 Description:"Prayer can be used to name injustice; lament sickness, destruction and death; to glorify God and much more. Prayer has always been part of faith-driven social movements as a way to unify struggles, collectively calm our woes, and remind ourselves (and others!) that God is bigger than the Powers that aim to deny God's goodness in the world.
Participants will discuss their experiences of prayer - good and bad, faithful or desperate, silent or shared. We will talk about how glorifying God can be a revolutionary practice. We will design tools to help bring prayer into the public square."
