If you want to get a little more, go to that new site I posted about on my blog a few days ago - the Liturgy of the Hours Apostolate - what we've been using to print out our little meeting "booklets" recently - pretty handy. Every prayer for all 7 prayers of the day is on there in viewing and booklet form as PDF files. Here is the personal prayer section of the site. Then open the viewing PDF for the day you're in and all the prayers for that day will be there. Of course you can delete the file when you're done.
This is one of the ways we're trying to be formed together as a community. Hopefully we can all try to do our best to get some of these in during the week. Maybe we should incorporate a time in our weekly meetings where we share what God has shown us in our weekly prayers and readings. We'll see. I know it's slow going around here, but I think that's the healthiest thing. That's it for now. Peace.

4.20.2005 helping palmer out Hey folks. I've put this on my blog already but thought I'd put it over here as well. I've added a Paypal donate button to the right there so that we can donate to help Mark Palmer with his medical bills surrounding this cancer thing he's been going through. Their insurance has denied payment on any of the bills, which will be upwards of $75,000, so the Body of Christ insurance will have to kick in I reckon. Time to give. Give what you can, if you can. Hopefully we can whittle it down a good bit. The button allows you to give through Vine & Branches. When you give through that button it will automatically be tagged for Mark's medical bills so we can keep track of how much to give them. Thanks.
