In this video, we dive into the Catechism’s wisdom on prayer and how it guides us to be open to the Holy Spirit’s movement. The Catechism reminds us that while we can't control the Holy Spirit, we can prepare our hearts and minds for prayer by relying on the Church’s "wellsprings" of prayer—Scripture, the Liturgy, and the teachings of the Church.
Through powerful insights from the Catechism (CCC 2558, 2650, and 2651), we explore how prayer is a dynamic relationship with God, nourished by both our personal discipline and the Church’s sacred tradition. Discover practical ways to pray, from Lectio Divina to journaling, and learn how studying the Catechism can deepen your understanding of the faith and open your heart to the Holy Spirit.
Join us in exploring the role of the Catechism in helping us grow in prayer and be ready when the Holy Spirit moves in our lives.
