Prayer

Yesterday I attended our local Catholic mothers group for the first time in a year. For some reason lately I have been staying home a lot. It was so nice to see other mothers similar to myself, encouraging. Anyway, the subject of the meeting was prayer. Fitting subject for this season of Lent. Father Adam who gave the talk encouraged us to have a spiritual game plan (taken from "Handbook of Prayers" by James Socias, Midwest Theological Forum, pp 8-10). Which includes a daily, weekly, monthly, yearly and always sections to really help and guide you. I suggest you look it up practicle guides can be very useful in our busy times of today. Father also said that it would be best to pray the Rosary as a family everyday. So I encourage you to pray the Rosary (even a decade) with your family everyday! We have been doing this for Lent this year and have found it to be very rewarding. Well I'd love to write more but I have a birthday girl awake from her nap. Blessings, I will remember all who read this blog in my Rosary tonight!
