About P.R.A.Y.
P.R.A.Y. is best
known for religious awards programs. The P.R.A.Y. program helps young
people to develop a deeper relationship with God and to understand how
God is active in their lives and in the world around them. It is a
Christian Education resource that uses Bible lessons paired with service
projects to help young people not only to grow in Christian faith but
to also express their faith by reaching out in love and in service to
others. P.R.A.Y. encourages families, youth agencies, and Protestant
congregations to use the P.R.A.Y. series to foster spiritual growth in
children, youth and families.
