The Prayers of the People are a staple in the Episcopalian service, but they're also reminiscent of a "Choose Your Own Adventure" book, with forms and collects abounding. We're here to discuss the many forms that intercessory prayer can take and why it matters to pray in unison for our world and for each other. We break down the structure of the prayers, discuss why we pray for government officials, share our personal favorite prayers, and entertain a riveting sidebar discussion on "intinction". Please excuse Annie's audio this episode, it was a little wonky for some reason!
