Twenty-Ninth Sunday in Ordinary Time

October 16, 2022

 

Fr. Jim's Jots

Greetings!

As many of you know, this month is the month of the Most Holy Rosary.  You are invited to join our daily Rosary group on Zoom at 7 p.m.  If you are interested, please see the E-Bulletin to get the link to join.

As we approach election season in our nation, let us pray for discernment as we prepare to vote in the midterm elections.

Lord God,

As the election approaches, we seek to better understand the issues and concerns that confront our city/state/country, and how the Gospel compels us to respond as faithful citizens in our community.

We ask for minds and hearts that are open to hearing the voice of leaders who will bring us closer to your Kingdom.  We pray for discernment so that we may choose leaders who hear your Word, live your love, and keep in the ways of your truth.

We ask this in the name of your Son Jesus Christ and through the power of the Holy Spirit.

Amen *

Enjoy the beautiful Fall colors.

Blessings,

Fr. Jim
