Prayer time is a point during each day when we meet the Lord in a quiet place to pray to God. To pray to God is to talk to Him, to worship and thank Him. We also ask for blessings, to say sorry for our sins, to pray for our own needs and the needs of others, to read the Scripture and listen to His words. Prayer connects us to God.

An old man then comes into the church and prays the same exact prayer that the
