Daily Scripture & Prayer
Whether it is the first thing in the morning, during a quiet moment at the office, or next to a child’s bed in the evening, the daily scripture allows us to reflect on our spirituality and the loving presence of God in our lives. Our prayer then reflects on the daily scripture reading.
