These Saints, with a capital S, serve as beacons reminding us of the possibilities that arise when ordinary people respond eagerly to God’s call.

Faith calls us to persist, to seek understanding, and to remain open to God’s presence, even when the path is unclear, the answer uncertain, and the odds appear to be set against us.

Fulfill now, O Lord, our desires and petitions as may be best for us...

Prayer is where the threshold of heaven and our human spirit is as it thinnest.

Whether Jesus spoke in Greek, Hebrew, Aramaic, Spanish, or King James English, the idea is always the same. Jesus prays for us.
