.=: M O R N I N G P R A Y E R :=. from Father Pat Umberger __________________________________________________ J O I N M E A great Pilgrimage to the Holy Land. 04-15 November 2007 Now is a great time to sign up! The brochure and full information, including hotel links, is on-line. We'll renew our Baptismal Promises at the Jordan River, where Jesus was Baptized by John. We'll renew our marriage vows and pray for any deceased husbands and wives at Cana in Galilee where Jesus attended a wedding with his Mother and turned water into wine. We'll take a boat ride on the Sea of Galilee. We'll even have a chance to visit Masada and to swim in the Dead Sea. We'll visit the Holocaust Museum in Jerusalem too, and see the Dead Sea Scrolls. You'll never read Scripture in the same way after this wonderful Pilgrimage! Follow the link from: www.frpat.com _________________________________________________ .=: M O R N I N G P R A Y E R :=. From Father Pat Umberger .=: S C R I P T U R E F O R T H E D A Y :=. "If you had faith the size of a mustard seed, you could say to this mulberry tree, 'Be uprooted and planted in the sea,' and it would obey you." ~Luke 17:6 .=: M E D I T A T I O N F O R T H E D A Y :=. To see God with eyes of faith is to see God's power manifesting itself in the material world. When we don't believe, it's hard for us to see God's work. In response to our belief, God can work miracles in our personalities. Miracles can happen in the realm of personality and are accomplished by God's never-failing power. But God's power manifests itself best in us when we accept God's power through faith. We can only see God with the eyes of faith, but this kind of seeing can produce a great change in our way of living. .=: P R A Y E R F O R T H E D A Y :=. I pray that I may see God with the eyes of faith. I pray that this seeing will produce a change in my personality. .=: S C R I P T U R E S A N D S A I N T O F T H E D A Y := Scriptures: http://www.nccbuscc.org/nab/ Saint of the Day: http://www.americancatholic.org/Features/SaintofDay/ .=: W E P R A Y :=.
