THE COUPLE THAT PRAYS TOGETHER STAYS TOGETHER.

Mary’s Child: the Prince of Peace
Elizabeth said: ‘Blessed is she who believed that the promise made to her by the Lord would be fulfilled’. This week we celebrate the wonderful feast of Christmas. Mary is by far the best person to teach us what it is about as she was very central to the first Christmas.

The Spirit of Truth
Jesus said to his disciples: “I shall ask the Father and he will give you the Spirit of truth.” If someone ever says to you “I want to tell you the truth about yourself” stand well back because you can be almost certain that you will hear all the things that are wrong with you! That’s what we have done with the notion of truth. God’s idea of truth is just the opposite. It is about all that is good and wonderful about us. This week ban criticism from your life and practice the truth by speaking the good about yourself and also about one another and about those who share your home with you. Go out of your way to notice the good qualities of each person who makes up your life and let each one know the goodness you see in them. And look at your faith community this week and make a list of all the good that is being done by your priests and by so many people and let them know what you see. Then you will be God’s people.
Ever-living God, help us to celebrate our joy
in the resurrection of the Lord
and to express in our lives the love we celebrate.
We ask this through Christ our Lord.
During the day, when apart
Lord, accept our prayers and our married love.
Make us worthy of this great gift you give us
and renew our spirit of adventure in our marriage.
We ask this through Christ our Lord.
Evening/Night Prayer together
Almighty and ever living God, you restored us to life
by raising Christ from death.
Strengthen us in our love for one another.
May we feel the saving power of your love in our daily lives.
We make our prayer through Christ our Lord.
Questions for Action for the week
For your marriage: What are some of the nicest things that have happened between you as husband/wife recently? Share these this week.
For others: Think of some group that works for justice in our society. How can you help them this week?
