What is God Calling You To Do This Lent?
Consider Praying for People in Need this Lent as part of the
St. Michael Prayer Angel Lenten Challenge
Lent is right around the corner and St. Michael Parish is excited to once again offer a powerful prayer program that will help us to spread Jesus’ love, kindness, hope and healing this Lent. It’s called the “St. Michael Prayer Angel Lenten Challenge,” and here’s how it works!
Be A Prayer Angel – As part of “Prayer Angel Lenten Challenge,” parishioners sign up as Prayer Angels to pray for a different Prayer Recipient each day during Lent and send that person a card to let them know they’re in your prayers. It’s just that simple. Prayer Angels also receive a short reflection via email each day that can be put into the card or used as inspiration.
Prayer Angels Can Nominate a Prayer Recipient – As a Prayer Angel, you can nominate someone to be Prayer Recipient in our program. Prayer Recipients are people you know who are going through a difficult time or just need to be lifted up to our Lord each day during Lent. Prayer Recipients do not need to be St. Michael Parishioners; they can be anyone you know who you could use some extra love, healing, encouragement, hope and support this Lent.
More than 60 people signed up as St. Michael Prayer Angels last year and we prayed and sent cards to 70 different people throughout Lent. Both Prayer Recipients and Prayer Angels said this program brought them closer to Jesus during Lent. And the people who receive our cards and prayers are always so grateful. It truly has a positive impact on all who participate.
