We pray for those who have suffered harm from members of the Church; may they find within the Church herself a concrete response to their pain and suffering.
This Lent may we engage fully in our Lenten observances of fasting, prayer and almsgiving; may our actions reflect our hearts, and may we worship the Lord through all that we say and do.
For our friends and loved ones who either have no relationship with God or who are not attending church; may the light of Christ bring these precious souls out of darkness and into his loving arms.
