Listen and be dazzled by Sarah Faux’s weaving of her personal story of being a part of worship but disengaged until a certain “Gloria,” a transcending moment one Mass — after 14 years! Certainly the “slow work of God” in her life story!
Sarah’s reflection on prayer as a synergy of collaboration with God and using her musical background of chant to depict the breathing, pulsing, rhythmic culmination of prayer-song — many voices singing as one in praise — was written (should we say “composed”?) for you as one of her Novena gifts. After sharing her own interiorized understanding of the “Our Father,” Sarah ends with the Eastern Orthodox prayer of self before God: Pray You, Yourself, in Me.
