how others have managed

'We found praying aloud together easier when we were out walking our dog. '

'Because we became Christians after we married, praying together was very strange. We started by sitting side by side and each praying silently…then, saying a sentence out loud now and again led us on to feeling comfortable about starting to pray together.'

'One day we decided not to be shy and to find the confidence'

'We began by saying grace over meals and then by extending those prayers '

'We started by using written prayers. Then we wrote our own and prayed them out loud together. It got easier.'
