The Mount of Olives

LENT_real_rest_FRONTPAGE

Luke 22:39-46

Prayer for the day:
Jesus, the story of your life on earth is marked by both time and space. In taking human flesh and bone you walked among us, marking certain places as holy by the events that took place there. Yet, in your presence you sanctified not just one place but all. In this season of Lent open our eyes to the holy moments and places around us. Help us take notice that we need not stand on great mountains, but that your grace is present here and now. Amen

Question for reflection:
Where are your holy places?

~ Josh Brockway, Director for Spiritual Life and Discipleship
