A short time of prayer and then we rest






Dear Family of Love and Prayer Pilgrims!


Happy Self Care Saturday! Part of taking care of oneself is unplugging ! We are going to do just that after this short time of prayer. Let us begin with our "Be Stills";

Be still and know that I am God.
Be still and know.
Be still.
Be.

Be still and know that I am God.
Be still and know.
Be still.
Be.

Be still and know that I am God.
Be still and know.
Be still.
Be.


Let us light our candles and be at prayer. Let us pray for all who have to work on weekends and who have little time for family and self-care. Let us pray for all of our family members who labor in the fields seven days a week because of labor shortage. We pray for the people and nation of Burundi and all the nations of the world where there are political hot spots and this includes our own. We pray for an end to racism, fear, hatred, and all negative "obias" and "isms". We pray for peace in our hearts, minds, and spirits as we rest this night. We pray that we may join together in the CALM movement where we learn and live as compassionate, accepting, loving, and merciful beings. We pray that we may learn to be the loving and light bearing Family and Children of God to this fragile and broken world.
