Comments from participants in a 6-week Immanuel Prayer facilitators practice group:
Mary Anne put me at ease and helped me feel joyful and peaceful rather than stressed about (or during) our sessions. She helped me feel more confident, like, “I can do this!” I learned a lot from Mary Anne’s example, in addition to her helpful teaching which gave me lots of clarity and new insights. Her trust in the goodness and accessibility of Jesus was contagious. Mary Anne‘s teaching about identity gave me a whole new realization about its secure foundation, which I am finding extremely comforting. —Kim Carlson
As I was new to Immanuel Prayer facilitating, I found myself feeling comfortable with you and the group. The goal is being together with Immanuel and feeling belonging and you helped me feel just that. So, thank you! It was a plus for me to have a chance to practice with you and receive your feedback at the end. The topics were educational, since you were so knowledgeable. Thank you for all you do. It was a memorable experience for me. —Rudee Atlas
Not only was Mary Anne helpful in our IP training, but she taught us after the prayer training for about thirty minutes. I looked forward to her teaching, because she always explained something I didn't know I needed to hear! It was practical. As a passionate student herself, she spoke as one seeking to know the truth and share the truth. Mary Anne has been a rich resource for me. —Pam Bryan
Mary Anne led our Immanuel Prayer practice group for several weeks. Her additional half hour teaching segments introduced new information that was helpful, but I received the most benefit from Mary Anne's debriefs after practice sessions. She discerned the strengths of the facilitator and was clear and enthusiastic in discussing those strengths. This produced more confidence in the facilitator. —Pam Holtman
