Tuesday, March 8th

 DAY 2

MORNING PRAYER

Today’s prayer was written by an École St. Mary High School student. It is about the theme of being supportive of each other, for we all have our own problems in life.   

Loving God,

Thank you for your graces in life. 

During this Lenten season,

help me to show continual and unending grace

to everyone I meet.

Grant me patience and understanding.

Help me to forgive others even when it is hard to do so.

We ask this through Christ our Lord,

Amen
