PLEASE PRAY for positive outlooks in the face of change and for unity as we move forward into unknown situations. You made us and our world to be constantly evolving and growing – help us to have a mindset to find the positives in all change. 

READ THE GOOD NEWS – Matthew 5: 13-20 – Help us Lord to be salt in our World and to keep our saltiness. We have a responsibility to transform the environment in which we find ourselves, just as salt transforms food. We may be few in number, but just as a few grains of salt can make a big difference in food, so also a few faithful Christians can make a big difference in the world.
