PRAYER youth catechism, paragraph 478: Why can

we be confident that our prayer is heard by God?

Many people called on Jesus during his earthly

life

for healing, and their prayers were answered.

Jesus, who rose from the dead, listens to our petitions and

brings them to the Father. [CCC 2615-2616, 2621] Even

today we know the name of the synagogue official: Jairus was

the name of the man who begged Jesus for help, and his prayer

was answered. His little daughter was deathly ill. No one could

help her. Jesus not only healed his little girl, he even raised her

from the dead (Mk 5:21-43). Jesus worked a whole series of

well-attested cures. He performed signs and miracles. The

lame, the lepers, and the blind did not ask Jesus in vain. There

are testimonies also of prayers answered by all the saints of the

Church. Many Christians can tell stories of how they called to

God and God heard their prayer. God, however, is not an

automat. We must leave it up to him how he will answer our

petitions.

ST. ANTHONY BOYS/GIRLS MONDAY NIGHT BASEBALL practice on Mondays in May from 6:30 -7:30 at St. Anthony school and play Trinity IN. every Monday in June. Boys and girls ages 4-10 are welcome no matter their skill level. This is a program to teach them the basics and to have fun. There is no cost to the parents. If you have not signed up yet please call or text Krista at 419-979-3334. If any parent wants to come out and help that would be great.

SHARING OUR FAITH WITH OTHERS: On

Evangelization in the Modern World, apostolic

exhortation of Pope Paul VI: 24. The person who has been

evangelized goes on to evangelize others. Here lies the test of

truth, the touchstone of evangelization: it is unthinkable that a

person should accept the Word and give himself to the

kingdom without becoming a person who bears witness to it

and proclaims it in his turn.
