Bob,
Our parish has begun a “Prayer of the 72” campaign. Remembering that Jesus sent 72 ordinary people disciples out to do great things, we are asking at least 72 people in our parish to commit to praying in church one hour each week from now until our New Year’s Eve vigil. We are praying for spiritual renewal of ourselves, our families, our parish, and the whole Church. Today I put this piece in the prayer aid folders. Yes, pray more; talk less. We had 53 people sign up the first weekend!
Blessings,
Mary Ortwein

Thank you for the reminder to prioritize our time and how we spend it. I need more prayer time and have just not spent the control and effort to do so. Your words will help me move in that direction. I needed to hear them!

Excellent reflection Bob. As Mama always reminded us, “more things are wrought by prayer than this world dreams of”.

One of my favourite times with the Father Son and Holy Spirit is my daily walks. Especially this time of year enjoying the Autumn colours. I marvel at the beauty and give silent thanks. ☺ ? ?

Thank you Bob. It’s a great reminder for me to take time out to be ‘filled-up’ with the Spirit every day, just like Jesus did on earth.
