PRAY patch

Bible Basics RP3 is a patch series from P.R.A.Y. It is designed to help families, Sunday school classes and Scouting groups get into the Bible. We firmly believe that time spent in the Bible can be precious time with God. 

The Bible is basic to the Christian life, which is why the Bible is the emphasis of this new patch series. We're encouraging you to not only read the Bible, but also to take the time to picture the passage, ponder its meaning and put it into action. That’s what "RP3" is all about.

Families and groups taking part in the program will get to enjoy reading the Bible together, and become familiar with the RP3 outline and be equipped with a simple tool for personal Bible reading and study at the same time.
