Altar Flowers: by Sandra Mayo
The flowers are given in praise of our risen Lord and Savior and dedicated to His sheep who know their Shepherd & hear His voice. Although the world seems to be "in pieces" right now....we know the ending...and it is a glorious one! God is still in control!

Call to Prayer:
When we are not sure how to pray,
or if we are even able to address God in prayer,
the Spirit intercedes for us
with sighs too deep for words.
Know that no matter what, nothing,
absolutely nothing can ever separate us
from God's presence and His love.
Think on this as we pray . . .

Amen!
