DAY 2
MORNING PRAYER 
Lord, 
As we continue our Lenten journey, 
help us to remember to pray more, give more, and fast from things 
so that we can deeper our relationship with you and each other.  
Thank you for the life of St. Joseph so that we can see an example of faith in action.  
Help us to know that there is no greater hope than in Jesus Christ.
Amen
