You can pray by saying specific prayers, by making up your own and by reading sacred scripture or just a thought for the day or scripture for the day.

One can offer some activity as a prayer for another person. I remember praying for someone who was making a retreat. One day I decided to clean the children's room as a prayer for her.

I was not a great housekeeper, and that action was much needed by my family and was especially helpful to her. I had no idea until she told me that some people can actually feel prayer. (More)
