St. Alban's Episcopal Church

Eastertide 2009

My Prayer this Eastertide season is:  This each of us will take time from our busy schedules to focus on Christ; so that our lives will be changed as we deepen our understanding of who Christ is and what He did for us in this Eastertide season; that we might share in Christ's victory over death; that our hearts and ministries will be resurrected to a new level of service in Christ's name; so that we might show fourth His love, reconciliation, and healing in a broken world.

In His Eternal Love,
