Sometimes we might see prayer as an isolated event. However, one church has connected their prayers to the sacrament of Holy Communion. The members of St. John Lutheran Church in Atlanta as an Advent project wrote their prayers for the world on strips of cloth. The pieces of cloth were then draped over the communion rail. They saw the need for God's grace to come through their prayers.
It also made me think that Jesus, who comes in the sacrament, would also become incarnate by an answer to prayer. What other thoughts might come to your mind?
