For our June 27 ANEW2 Zoom meeting, we heard from Linda Rounds-Nichols, member at Holy Spirit in Gallup. She gave us an entertaining and inspirational look at ways to pray when you cannot be in church. After reminding us all of the childhood finger game of "here's the church, here's the steeple", (which I missed in the video because I hit record a minute late), Linda led a discussion of various types of prayer and places to find resources.
Attendees also shared ideas, some of which are listed below:
Participation in Albuquerque Jewish services like Nahalat Shalom, Albuquerque
Following services from the Washington National Cathedral, and/or other parishes plus your own.
