Joy

Halloween

Reflection

“There is a child in every one of us who is still a trick-or-treater looking for a brightly-lit front porch.” ~ Robert Brault

Prayer

God of joy, we are passing through difficult and painful times. The evening news is often disheartening. Yet, we know you call us to be people of joy. May the happiness we see in the faces of costumed children this day fill our hearts with joy and renew within us an appreciation of the goodness of the life you give us.
We pray in your name. Amen.

Call to Action
