How Prayer Can Extend Beyond Words


Copied URL to clipboard

A poem by the British writer Carol Ann Duffy prompts the Chapel’s Rev. Kathryn Lester-Bacon to reflect on how prayer can exist beyond speech.

In the transition of graduation, "we might find that our prayers are just running out of words," Rev. Lester-Bacon says. "I offer this poem to you as a reminder that when we run out of words that is when the Holy Spirit intercedes for us with sighs too deep for words."
