Rev. Rachel Twigg, a priest with Saint Benedict's Table, says she will be leading evening prayer from her home for the first time as a way to help people feel connected while practicing social-distancing.

Twigg says that she noticed people were becoming lonely while self-isolating and wanted to come up with creative solutions to help others feel connected during this time of isolation.

Twigg decided that she would hold evening prayers each day in her sunroom, but do it with a twist.

"I thought 'what could we do that would help people feel connected?" Twigg says. I came up with an idea of taking this prayer that a lot of us do individually in our homes and doing it online."

She is asking people to join her at 5 p.m. each day to pray online. It is the first time Tigg will have ever attempted to lead prayer online. 

"We are going to try to do this together," Twigg says.

The Anglican priest hopes that by praying together, people will be able to feel connected. Twigg adds that she will also be responding to comments during the prayer session.

Participants can join on Saint Benedict's website or live on Facebook.
