Sal's Message

We gather in the Lord's name and through the praise and quiet His presents was felt. He allow us to come and be held in His arms. The readings were-James Ch.1--Exodus Ch.14 Ver.11-14----Psalms 8-----Psalms 63----. Humility was share in the teaching, and when we accept that we are the best us that God could make we need never worry about our place in life because he has it all mapped out for us.We also must respect others and allow them to be the person God made them to be. May the Lord bless each of you this week and the Holiday weekend ahead. We will not meet next Monday evening because of Memorial weekend. We will be back on Monday June. 5,until then, God bless, Sal

Sal's Reflections

With an open heart and mind, we came together tonight to praise, sing, and worship our Lord. He again was present to us through His readings, sharing, and teaching. There was a reading from John 14- Ver.15-21, and Matthew 26-Ver.26, The Lord reminded us that waiting for prays to be answer, may seen forever, but he does answer in His time. He never fails us and He will always be there. The Lord will come through, He will delivered Himself, He comes to us at His right time, he will delivered our request, He always does. Just have the faith to believe and remain strong. Until next Monday, may God bless each of My Sisters and Brothers, in Christ.
SAL

Note: Until Sal is able to post these himself, I'll do it for him

Gennesaret

Gennesaret is a retreat for people with a serious illness. May 19 thru 21st my husband and I will be working as team members. We have done this in the past and have found it to always be a very rewarding weekend for everyone involved. I'm asking that you pray for the Lord to bless this retreat abundantly. Pray that the Lord will open ears and hearts to hear His voice and pray that each retreatant will know the Lord's healing touch. During the weekend, letters of prayer support are given to the retreatants. If you would like to write a letter or several to be given that weekend it would be great. Sometimes school children pray for the retreatants and they write letters and draw pictures. All the letters are treasured. We suggest you address the letter Dear Friend. You can give me the letters at the prayer meeting.

A Prayer Request

Since today is First Communion Day at our Parish and others (and if not at yours, it will be soon, if it hasn't been recently) I'd like to offer up a prayer for the children receiving communion for the first time: that they be able to understand and thrill at the reality of Christ's presence in the Eucharist; that they (if they can't fully grasp transubstantiation) can be in awe of what they are experiencing today; and for that matter - that all of us, who are well past our first communion, remember, each time we receive, the wonderous gift Jesus gave us in the Eucharist.

A Little Introduction

Since I don't go to the prayer meetings, I thought I'd introduce myself to all of you. I'm Christine, Anne's daughter. I would attend the prayer meetings if it were at all practical, but unfortunately, it is not. I'm helping Anne K and Bill M set up this blog. So if any of you have any questions or problems, feel free to send them my way. I don't promise to have answers, but I'll do my best.

Welcome To Our Blog

Merciful Savior Prayer Group has decided to enter the online age. Our hope is that this blog will help us to become more connected. This blog can be used to post prayer needs. This is a chance to share our thoughts and feeling with each other aside from our Monday evening prayer meeting. Our hope is that we will become closer to each other and to our Lord. Halleluia!
