Prayer Challenge Invitation: How to Pray Challenge

As part of our partnership with Hallow, this prayer challenge is FREE for all SJN parshinoners.

Prayer is more than something we do—it’s a conversation that God Himself desires to have with us. And there are many ways He wants to engage our hearts.

St. John Neumann invites you to join our parish community for the How to Pray Challenge on the Hallow app, starting Monday, February 9th. This will lead us right up to the next free Lenten Prayer Challenge.

Together, we’ll explore a variety of prayer styles—through Scripture, music, contemplation, reflection, the Rosary, and more. This challenge will help you discover which form of prayer speaks personally to your soul and how God might be inviting you into a deeper relationship with Him.

Wherever you are—at home, at work, or on the go—you can join us in this shared journey of prayer and discovery.

Let’s listen for the voice of God—together.

You’ll get a reminder before the challenge begins so you can start with the rest of the parish. Not yet on Hallow? Visit hallow.com/parish and search for our parish by zip code.

This Lent, our parish invites you to join Hallow’s Lent Pray40 prayer challenge, beginning on Ash Wednesday, February 18. Available on our parish page in the Hallow app — with or without a subscription — Lent Pray40 is an opportunity for our entire parish community to journey together in daily prayer and reflection throughout Lent.

A Kids’ Lent Challenge will also be available on our parish page starting on Ash Wednesday, offering families with children an engaging and meaningful way to experience Lent together.

More details about this year’s Lent Pray40 theme — including the special guides who will walk with us each day — will be released soon. The Lent Pray40 waitlist is available now on our Hallow parish page.

As a parish partnered with Hallow, our parish page is a place to join prayer challenges, share prayer intentions, and connect more deeply with our parish family. Join us as we walk together into Lent, alongside our Pastor and the whole community.
