WHEN YOU HEAR THE CHURCH BELLS RING

Sunday mornings our church rings the bell to call the faithful to praise and worship together. During this time of isolating to prevent the spread of the COVID-19 virus we aren’t hearing many church bells.

When you hear the peal of church bells consider it an appeal to for you personally to pray The Lord’s Prayer.

Our Father, who art in heaven, hallowed be Thy name. Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread and forgive us our trespasses as we forgive those who trespass against us. Lead us not into temptation but deliver us from evil. For thine is the kingdom and the power and the glory for ever. Amen.

May the many prayers we offer serve to comfort those in need as we wait on the Lord.
