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.

    I already have the book and have seen the movie so I dont need to win. HOWEVER, We were talking about it at our Book Club today. It is a great book and movie for couples who are finding their marriage is a little stagnant. The book is a great way to see your spouse through new eyes and really, really, really learn to love them again! I hope whoever wins it enjoys it. We were talking about all doing The Love Dare together as a group on our husbands. That would be quite a Lenten challenge! -Veronica

    The Love Dare is a very special way to recharge your relationship with your spouse in your marriage.

    My daughter and son-in-law were each given this book at their Pre-Cana classes and even after our 30th anniversary, there were so many challenging exercises. You get out of this what you put into it.

    I do not need a copy of this book, but wanted to share these comments.
