Please Pray For
The angel said to them, “Do not be afraid; for
behold, I proclaim to you good news of great
joy that will be for all the people. For today in
the city of David a savior has been born for you
who is Christ and Lord. And this will be a
sign for you: you will find an infant wrapped in
swaddling clothes and lying in a manger.”
Lk 2:10-12
IN OUR PRAYERS: For those who are sick or suffering, especially
Regina Smith, Jim Hughes, Mary Gorman, and Clayton Cullen.
