WE AIM TO BE A PEOPLE OF PRAYER
IN THE MIDST OF OUR CITY.

Halifax Prayer Room

In order to flourish in our spiritual lives and become participants of renewal, we have to learn to push back against the relentless noise and compulsivity of our city. Developing daily, weekly and monthly patterns of prayer that work within the flow of our lives, helps us to live prayerfully in all that we do.

  • Halifax Prayer Room is a space to encounter God's presence, practice silence and solitude, cry out and engage with the needs of the world through prayer, worship, and adoration. It is a space for consistent personal and corporate prayer.

  • In our worship space, we have a series of artwork (by Scott Erickson) set up across the room to help us re-image our idea of prayer. Each piece begins with an explorative statement about prayer. Then an image and meditation is offered as a reframing of how we can enter into a deeper conversation with the Divine. You can use these as a catalyst in your time with God, or take up a place and posture anywhere else in the room.
