Lets Start first with a reflection on the gospel:
Today's gospel is The Prodigal Son. Jesus reminds us again and again that he came to save the sinners and that we need to love the lost and bring them back home. I often think of myself as someone who gets lost and comes back time and time again. I take for granted all that I take for granted all that I have and just as soon as things get tough I run back to our Heavenly Father and beg for him to take me back in, and he always does.
Now for my fears:
I am currently in a state of total fear and panic. We are entering April and on the 30th is Sipping with Saints. Everything seams to be in line. We have great volunteers, we have artwork, we have wine, we have food....but will people show up? I am terrified that they won't.
I can't sleep thinking about it. Every moment that I am home I am working on and thinking about this event.
Now for a quick prayer:
Oh God, please help us to know and do your will. If it is your will for us to serve this community please help us to have the strength to stick with it. Please, with your grace, be with our volunteers as they give their time and talents in your name. If it is your will please help the community to believe in our cause and to support our organization as we support your daughters and our Saints. Amen.
Go tell John, Jennifer Dunaway needs some validation.
