Our Prayer

Dear Heavenly Father, hear our prayer:

Please weave the women of St. Raphael into a beautiful tapestry of faith and friendship. Let us be woven by your Holy Spirit with our eyes and hearts set upon Christ our Savior. Help us shine with the light of Christ and draw souls to Jesus. We ask this in the name of Jesus, through the intercession of the Blessed Virgin Mary. Amen.

The Little Black Book

Posted by Gina

Last weekend while I was away on a family trip to North Carolina we attended Sunday Mass at a local seaside church.


 
This trip I speak of was showered with a multitude of gifts from the Holy Spirit but there is one in particular that I would like to share with you now.

After Mass they handed out The Little Black Book, a preparation for the season of Lent. I snatched mine up and began looking through it immediately and was enamored at once!  It is small enough to fit into my purse and travel with me through my day so that whenever life takes a brief hiatus from the hustle and bustle around I can stop read, reflect and pray.  There is also an eBook format for you tech savvy gals. (And a Spanish version and a children's version.)

Little Black Book is a wonderful way to bring prayer into your life on a daily basis even if for a few minutes, after all that’s all it takes to invite the Holy Spirit in to make you desire MORE!!!  It is a beautiful tool in which one can enrich their relationship with Jesus. It is a non-threatening invitation to encourage people to build a foundation, a prayer life …one brick at a time.

I wish for everyone to know the gift of a strong and consistent prayer life and all of its rewards!!
