There are also prayers for a variety of occasions, including Lenten prayers for strength. So click on over and see what you can find...

Lenten Reflections
Our director of Christian formation and education used the following video for an EYC (youth) Eucharist last Sunday:
***
We won't forgive the people who we hire to teach us about forgiveness.
A St. Paul's parishioner said this to me the other day, and I can't get it out of my head. When I asked her to elaborate, she said people expect more from clergy than anyone else and can't forgive them (us) if those expectations aren't met and if big mistakes are made. I wish it wasn't true. I think she might be right, though.
What's beyond forgivable?
