Prayer
What is prayer?
talking and listening to God as we would a close friend
Pray at St. B's
In addition to Mass, explore a variety of prayer opportunities offered at St. B's each week from adoration, centering prayer, healing prayer, and more.
Prayer Request
How can we pray for you. Send us your prayer request and our prayer team will pray for you and your loved one ones.
Mass Intention
A Mass Intention is a wonderful way for you to request that the priest 'offer' a Mass for someone you know and love. These intentions many times are for the soul of a deceased person, but may also be for the personal intentions of the living (such as their birthday).
Prayer Resources
There are countless prayer resources but listed below are a few of our favorites.
- Listen to the Bible in a Year podcast with Fr. Mike Schmitz
- Listen to the Catechism in a Year podcast with Fr. Mike Schmitz
- Develop a daily prayer habit by taking on the 1% challenge spending 15 minutes (1%) a day in God's word

A prayer of quiet, or resting designed to reduce the obstacles to an intimate personal relationship with God, and to promote personal healing and spiritual growth. It is an old form of prayer, similar to meditation, that has been practiced by Christians for over 1,500 years.
New Prayer Opportunity-at home!
Pray the Rosary with your family via the Apostolate of Mary in the Domestic Church
A Marian ministry with a heartfelt mission: promote the recitation of the Holy Rosary within your home. In teams of two, we visit your home with a pilgrim image, praying with people in your household. During the week we encourage all to continue praying the rosary together. One week later, upon our return, we present the household with a smaller image as a gift. Choose a date to receive the image of Our Lady or contact Nancy Lemarroy for more info.
