A Hundred Thousand Hopes:
Stories About Prayer

Prayer is a powerful force for good in the world. It can lead us to new thoughts, feelings, and actions. As spiritual beings and writers, we gathered together a collection of personal stories about prayer—how it moves through our lives and changes us in small and great ways. 

This past spring during a morning meditation, Rehema felt the inspiration to begin an anthology. When she shared the idea, Michelle and Anne immediately joined in! Soon, writers from several communities came forward with their own powerful stories to share.

Together, we bring many years of experience as writers, editors, artists, and collaborators. We value the time and care it takes to bring a project like this into the world, yet we also know the value of doing it well. Creativity in community can change the world.
