This story comes to us from station leader Michael with our Somerville–Immaculate Conception parish team in New Jersey:
Today was a sunny day on the streets of Somerville, and the Holy Spirit was shining His grace on people’s hearts! We met with Elise, who is Catholic, but has fallen away from her faith. She expressed a desire to return, however. She took a Rosary, while we reminded her about the beautiful Sacrament of Confession to help her come back. We also prayed with her for her needs.
We likewise encountered Courtney, who has two sons and a baby on the way. She wanted a Rosary, and we prayed with her, as she asked specifically for a safe delivery for her unborn child.
We also spoke with Juliette. She wanted a Rosary, and we got to speak with her more. She let us pray with her, asking specifically for mental clarity. We reminded her that God loves her always and is present with her in everything!
We praise God for this ministry, its leaders, the evangelists and prayer warriors, and all those we encountered today!
