WELCOME TO ART PRAY LOVE
Listen Deeply. Create with Intention.
Art Pray Love weaves the ancient prayer practice of Lectio Divina together with mixed-media art-making and honest community. Rooted in Catholic tradition and open to women of every background, it’s a place for Scripture, art journaling, and prayer to meet. No experience needed, just bring your whole self, your wonder, your story and joy.

OUR STORY
It Started with Eight Women
and a bulletin announcement
One small line in the parish bulletin. Eight women who said yes. Around a table stacked with paint, paper, and Scripture, something quietly holy began.
Week by week, they prayed, created, and dreamed together — and a small parish gathering grew into Art Pray Love.
