What should I expect when attending a new prayer group for the first time?

Walking into a new prayer group can be a little daunting, but most communities are warm and welcoming. • Typically, you'll find an opening prayer or song, followed by sharing of prayer requests and discussions. • Don't worry if you feel shy at first; many groups encourage newcomers to just listen and participate as they feel comfortable. • Some groups may also have social events to help you meet others outside of the prayer setting, which can be a great way to build connections.
