‘Was on the way to soul space to sit, be still and know God. Stopping by here and hearing some praying people’s thoughts on prayer and God’s help made me feel very ready to go and talk to God – so that’s what I am going to do – right now! Thank you’
Holly, Chichester

‘Wow! That is so helpful - just to see ordinary people being real about prayer. God must enjoy the variety.’
Pete Reading

‘Awesome! Thought provoking. Why is it that some churches have lost the art of praying communally.’
Sue

‘Stayed for the whole loop and found it very rewarding. Wide range of experiences and some very enlightening insights – very worthwhile project. There were several people I shall remember very clearly whose words will help me.’
Caroline Ash Vale

‘Very interesting. Although out of the 8 or 9 people I saw only 1 was a woman. Maybe all the others are on the other part of the tape! Thank you though.’
Sara

‘A very touching presentation of the whole spectrum of the human experience of prayer – the doubt faith, the struggle and the wonder – makes me feel that it is the prayer that matters, and the expression of it when it comes from the heart is a personal gift from us to God and he delights in all our weakness and uniqueness!’
Roseanne London

‘Nice idea, still not entirely convinced.’

‘A very valuable project. It would be good if someone could analyse the different themes presented as many were cross cutting ( across different religions) Ones that come to mind are: accountability before God, God as personal guide, walking/journeying with God, prayers of intercession, prayers of thanksgiving, confession, going into the silence/special place/ante chamber.’
