DAY 2

MORNING PRAYER 

Loving Lord, 

We need the power of your Spirit in our lives to build on what is good, 

and to help change what needs to be changed. 

We pray that we may be faithful in responding to your call,

 to grow as the people you have called us to be, 

that we may give the message of faith and hope to others in our actions and words.  

During this Lenten time, 

help us to pray more, to fast, 

and to give so that we can show others the hope we have in faith.

Amen
