Practical Prayer Practitioners

We believe prayers are answered. Through Practical Prayer (our form of scientific, affirmative prayer), we expect physical healing, change in challenging conditions, and greater well-being in every area of life. We are students of consciousness who have practiced for many years the science and philosophy of being and living in the One Mind. In unifying with It, we raise our consciousness into the Intuitive realm knowing the Truth for you until you can know and experience it for yourself.

The Practitioners of New Thought Philadelphia offer ourselves in loving service to the realization of the Presence of God in each member of this spiritual community and in everyone, everywhere.

We are available by appointment for professional prayer sessions, and also at the end of the Sunday Celebration for a brief "Miracle in a Minute" at no charge. You can also submit a request for Practical Prayer through the Prayer Request web form.
