We begin this form time prayer with the sign of the cross. In the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit. Amen
This half-term, we are focusing on more reflective types of prayer. Below is a prayer called Visio Divina. Before we look at that, let’s revisit the scripture from yesterday that we are taking with us throughout the week.
