10th Day of 10 Days of Prayer

Dear Friends in Christ -

To all of you who have been praying for our parish over these past 10 days, THANK YOU.

To all of you who haven't been praying, we missed you! And the sad thing is that you won't have that sense of faithful partnership shared by those who joined in. But the good news is that GOD IS GOING TO BLESS US ALL as a result of the faithfulness of those who have prayed.

Come on Sunday and experience at least a part of that blessing . . . !

Here's a prayer for this final day . . . and for the days and weeks and years to come!!

O God of unchangeable power and eternal light: Look favorably on your whole Church, that wonderful and sacred mystery; by the effectual working of your providence, carry out in tranquility the plan of salvation; let the whole world see and know that things which were cast down are being raised up, and things which had grown old are being made new, and that all things are being brought to their perfection through whom all things were made, your Son Jesus Christ our Lord; who lives and reigns with you, in the unity of the Holy Spirit, one God, for ever and ever. Amen.

Faithfully yours,
Janet+
