Quote of the Week...

Food for Thought. . .

In a recent email to the Home Pray-ers group, Betsy Adams passed along a powerful note from a friend of the parish, Ravi Aurora. It was a brief story.  During World War II, a group of people would stop whatever they were doing at a certain time each night to pray for peace, safety and security of everyone. They did this every day and it was as if the city stood still, such was the power of prayer. The result was so overwhelming that the bombing was stopped after a short time!  Now again some are organizing, a group of people globally, to spend a minute praying for the security of our countries, for an end to the problems that oppress and suppress us, and for God to guide the decisions of our rulers.  We will meet at the following times: (The list follows at the end of this note). It was sobering to see all of the countries listed. It was also heartening to realize people offering prayers daily for peace in those places and for all people. To read more, click here. . .
