Stewards for Christ

A Prayer Ministry of Faith and Hope

Welcome!

Welcome to: STEWARDS FOR CHRIST. My goal here is to share my walk of faith with you and others. A journey to know Christ; weave daily prayer into our lives and get closer to God. Yes, it is a personal journey. A path at times we travel alone yet yearn for accompaniment with others. This is when the action of the term Synod comes in…journeying together.

As His child and a Prayer Warrior, we must pray for one another, for the world and our needs. Times are troubling, and those weak in faith, unsure, those forgotten need our prayers. Let us share our walk of Faith with them.

Many of you look to this page for the Devotional to the Prescious Blood of Jesus Christ. It will remain. Please continue to pray it throughout the year. Many souls will benefit from all your prayerful efforts.

Our mission…to save souls for Jesus Christ. He wants us to seek him. We need to seek him.

May God’s peace and blessings be with you always. Guadalupe Irma

Third Sunday of Advent-Pray for Love


THIRD WEEK OF ADVENT: The Promise of Joy

SCRIPTURE: “I will rejoice in the Lord greatly; my whole being shall exalt in my God; for he has clothed me with the garment of salvation.”

LITANY:

Leader: Our response is “O God, give us joy.” Lord, through your prophets you have promised us your joy. You have declared good news to those who are oppressed. R

Leader: We continue to place our hope in your promise, O God, to bind our broken hearts. R

Leader: We depend upon your promises, Giver of Joy; your promise of freedom to all captives. R

Leader: Lord, we wear our baptismal garment; help us to know that our only garment is You. R

Leader: We take comfort in your promises to us and await you with joyful and expectant hearts. R

Light the first, second and third Advent Candles

PRAYER

God of the Good News, the promise of your joy draws us to the manger. As we approach Jesus’ birth, let us kneel and adore him. Let us bow down before the mystery of Emmanual —God with us. We ask this through Christ, our Lord. Amen.
