Former Team Leader Needs Our Prayers

Over the past month or so, our SPSE family has had quite a few illnesses and deaths to endure. Sadly, we have yet another serious illness to report. A close friend to the apostolate, the wife of a long time team leader, has stage 4 cancer and we are calling on our extended family to pray for her recovery. We ask you to keep our friends in your prayers. Pray for her complete healing, and for support for her husband and their three small children. If you could offer up Masses and Rosaries that would be great. The staff here at SPSE would like to thank you in advance for lifting up these critical prayer intentions to the Lord.

Registration is now open for our annual Immersion Conference! The first night of the conference celebrates the 10th Anniversary of St. Paul Street Evangelization with Mass and reception with Archbishop Allen H. Vigneron and a keynote address from our founder, Steve Dawson.

Serving the Serviceman

Warren, MI. I recently took my car to a repair shop because of some problems with the heating system. After our serviceman explained what was happening, I thanked him for his work then asked, “Hey, before you go, do you need prayer for anything today?” He smiled and pulled out his cross and St. Anthony medal from around his neck. He said he will marry later this year at a nearby parish and asked me to pray for the rest of his job assignments that day as they are very short-staffed. I asked if I could say a quick prayer for these things and as he lowered his head and closed his eyes, I prayed for a resolution to our heating problem, for the rest of the serviceman's workday, for a smooth preparation for his wedding and to be blessed with a holy family. He thanked me and we blessed each other’s day. Next time, I will prepare medals for him and his fiancée and ask what else God may want me to do for him.

Meeting Jesus in Disguise, Pt. 1

Philadelphia, PA. Today, the Tempe team went to the MLK Day festival in Mesa to share the Good News. We encountered two women who wanted help getting their children baptized. There were a number of people who were happy to see us and thought our presence at the festival was a sign that they needed to come back to the Church. One fallen-away Catholic woman wanted to know all about the history of the Church and then wanted to be shown how to pray the Rosary. We prayed the Joyful mysteries with her and her 11-year-old son. To top off the day, we video-called Patricia from the Lagos, Nigeria team so she could see how street evangelization looks in the U.S. and she ended up speaking with the president of the festival about Our Lord and Savior!
