Prayer Cycle / Leader Resources

Prayer Cycle Leader Resources

The Earth Monastery Prayer Cycle written and audio podcast resources are free gifts although we gratefully accept donations to help support this work and the ongoing development of new Prayer Cycles.

These leader resources are meant to enhance the Prayer Cycle resources by offering extras like:

  • 7 beautiful videos which bring the closing blessings to life and can be shared in live or online worship settings (view the first in the series below).
  • Song sheets for all of our albums so you can learn to play the music.
  • Engaging Teaching Videos for all of the dance prayers which accompany the songs for each day. Let Betsey Beckman show you how to embody these prayers and guide you through the various elements.
  • Fun ‘Behind the Scenes’ commentary from our core team who put together these resources to offer more insight into creating the Prayer Cycle (Christine Valters Paintner), the audio podcasts (Simon de Voil), the songs (Richard Bruxvoort Colligan), and the dance prayers (Betsey Beckman)!
  • Licensing to share with groups (permission to share with attribution)
