It's good that people get called to prayer, but bad if they think it is like some pagan formulaic incantation. This is really sad.

C!
what you describe is similar to...great post, Fr. C!<br />what you describe is similar to these e-mails that go around-recipients of these e-mail prayers are required to read the prayer, make a prayer request and then send it on to a certain number of people depending on how fast you want your prayer answered; for example: something like 12 people would get your prayer answered in just hours or by a certain time; and sending it to less people would take longer-a day or two or three, etc... (personally, i always delete these e-mails) (at least paper isn't being wasted, though! :) anyway, we all know that prayer is answered in God's timing.

It would help me a lot here in Novitiate.<br /><br />Peace and I love your blog.Br. Vito Martinezhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00704307494372568352noreply@blogger.com
