Drive-Thru/Walk up prayer 11/7/20
Dave, Phil, Peggy, and Sharon set up for what was probably our last Drive Thru event of year on a nice, sunny but windy morning.
We had a total of nine people this morning for our first Saturday Drive-Thru event.
- A former navy man, very friendly, holding a lottery ticket, smiled and asked that if he wins the lottery that he uses the money wisely.
- Dave asked Phil to pray for the soul of the father of his wife's friend who passed away from Covid-19

- Mirah who was waiting for a bus (I neglected to write down her prayer intention)
- two women who were walking and took medals from Dave and later when walking past us again, stopped and each took home a book-one "The Great Divorce" by C.S.Lewis and the other a book on the wonders of the miraculous image of Our Lady of Guadalupe. (These books were given to the SPSE team by a church librarian as the church library already had copies.)
- A man who asked we pray for the soul of his mother
- Tiara, a drive-thru, who asked we pray in general for her life.
- Mindy who asked we pray for health issues. When Sharon asked Mindy about her faith life, she commented she is Native American and believes in God. Dave had recently watch a movie on EWTN about Kateri Tekakawitha so he mentioned there is a Native American saint. When Sharon gave a brief description of St Kateri and mentioned her smallpox scars disappeared after she died, Mindy was very interested as she has a skin condition. Sharon and Dave gave a brief description of praying to saints and patron saints (probably too brief!) and suggested St Kateri would be a good saint for Mindy to ask for help. Sharon wrote down Kateri Tekawitha (yes, I spelled it wrong when giving to Mindy) so Mindy could look up a full biography later on the internet.
- Finally Tony, a parishioner with three young children, asked that his youngest would get a good nap.
We want to thank Amy G for our new signs. Amy and her husband own a print shop.
