so many opportunities to be a “light” in this world, and we can start by lighting a “flame” of
grace, gratitude, and generosity within our own Holy Family Parish. Our parish is blessed to
have over 90+ ministries that await your spiritual gifts and loving heart. We pray that you
may live out God’s commandment of love and become a light in the world and share your
fruits of the spirit:
“I am the light of the world. Whoever follows me will not walk in darkness, but will have the
light of life…
You are the light of the world...Just so, your light must shine before others,
that they may see your good deeds and glorify your heavenly Father.”
- Mathew 5:14; John 8:12
Prayer
I beg you, Lord, give me the light I need
so that I can be a light to those around me
and guide them to you
with the joy of celebration.
Give me the wisdom to see your love,
not only in my heart today,
but in my life every day.
Help me to be grateful for your incredible gifts to me.
I ask that you help me to open my heart more fully
to your love for me.
Amen
