Pray for our Country!
Please see this footage about room 219 where our Congressmen and women go to pray to make the right decisions for our country "http://www.findroom219.com/". They ask our help to pray for them. We do every Sunday in the Divine Litugury already, but more prayer - more directed prayer - is always helpful. We are beginning an Orthodox prayer group which will not be limited to St. Nicholas, so please pass this along to anyone you think might be interested.
Please note this is a non-partisan effort, and we are, in fact, part of a larger group that believes in the importance of prayer. Members of 219 are Catholics, Protestants and Jews. It's about time the Orthodox were represented! We think of this as sort of an evangelization effort to elected representatives on Capitol Hill and across our country. Many people are reaching out for guidance in their lives and Orthodoxy has so very much to offer... if only they hear the good news.
To begin, please just send your name by email to Peter and Helen Evans and we'll begin a list. Our first prayer session will be on Tuesday, June 29th at St. Nicholas http://www.stnicholasdc.org/ at 6 pm. This will be within the Sts. Peter and Paul prayer vigil which will be held from 4 pm to 9 pm. It will consist of silent prayer and greeting each other. What will the future plans be: To Pray that the Holy Spirit guide us.
All are invited, Orthodox or not. Come and go as you please.
[Pray for our Country]
