Alpha Film Series: Why Pray?
Alpha is a series of sessions exploring the basics of the Christian faith. Each week’s short film looks at a different question around faith and is designed to create conversation. Alpha is run all around the globe, and everyone is welcome. Each session lasts less than a couple of hours and includes dinner. The entire course (including dinner) is free of charge. Children are welcome to attend with their parents. Three Grassroots Groups are running the Alpha Film Series this Summer. Choose which day/time works best for you. Mondays at 6:00 in East Pearland/Friendswood (June 13 – August 15) Mondays at 6:30 in Central Pearland (June 13 – August 15) Wednesdays at 6:30 in League City (June 15 – August 17) Grassroots Church in Pearland, Texas 77581. grassrootspearland.org

"Why and How Should I Pray?"
Prayer is communication with God.
To the Father
Not the judge, not the policeman, but to Abba (Dad/Daddy).
Through the Son
We have access to the Father because of what Christ has done for us.
By the Spirit
Rewards of Prayer
Peace - gives us peace
Perspective - changes our perspective
Power - changes situations
Results of Prayer
"When I pray, coincidences happen. When I don't, they don't."
-- William Temple, former Archbishop of Canterbury
Relationship with God because of Prayer
Our relationship with God grows and deepens through prayer.
Yes, but sometimes his answer is "No" or "Wait."
-- Corrie ten Boom
"Keep it simple, keep it honest, keep it going." -- Brother Luigi Gioia, Benedictine Monk
