In last month’s article I wrote about prayer as the most effective tool we have to encounter with God. I also referenced that in Sacred Scriptures we find prayers formulated by tradition from the first Christian communities. These include prayers of praise and blessing, petition, intercession, thanksgiving and praise.
This year, the Church will celebrate Catechetical Sunday on September 18 and will focus on the theme “Prayer: The Faith Prayed.”
Have you recently asked yourself who the heroes of our children are? Who is influencing our young people?
If we look for the word “sacrament” in the Bible, we are not going to find it, at least not in the sense we give it today. However, its foundation is entirely biblical. Moreover, the Sacraments were instituted by Jesus Christ.
