A:

In the synoptic gospels, Jesus went once to the Garden of Gethsemene to pray. He left Peter, James and John, and went a little way off to be alone as he prayed -returning after just one hour to find them asleep. He went back to pray again, and one hour later, returned to them and once again found them asleep. A third time, he went a little way off to pray, then just one hour later returned. By this time it was just midnight, the darkest hour, and he knew his time had come. All this happened in the Garden of Gethsemene. The original is in Mark 14:32-42, copied at Matthew 26:36-46 and, with embellishment and only one period of prayer, Luke 22:40-46.

In John's Gospel, Jesus does not pray in the Garden of Gethsemene, but says a triumphant prayer before he enters the Garden, and is arrested as soon as he does enter. Jesus' prayer is in John chapter 17, he enters the garden in verse 18:1 and the party comes to arrest Jesus in John 18:2-3.
