Week 12 – 1 Samuel

Happy Thanksgiving everyone!

For this festive week, our study is over 1 Samuel Chapters 22 & 23.  Please join in on the discussions in the group’s Private Chat Room on Facebook.  If you are not already a member, please contact me to get admitted.

Here’s another Thanksgiving prayer:

Thank you, Father, for having created us and given us to each other in the human family. Thank you for being with us in all our joys and sorrows, for your comfort in our sadness, your companionship in our loneliness. Thank you for yesterday, today, tomorrow and for the whole of our lives. Thank you for friends, for health and for grace. May we live this and every day conscious of all that has been given to us.

From The Catholic Prayer Book, compiled by Msgr. Michael Buckley 

Have a blessed and safe holiday!

Week 4 – 1 Samuel

This week, we are moving on to chapters 6 and 7. While looking over the study questions, I see at least a few places where I cannot wait to read your answers, especially since I’m not sure that I am answering them correctly.  So, lets continue to help one another. . . Please make sure to share your answers or thoughts with the group and/or correct me if my answers are wrong or lacking.  You can comment using the Private Chat Room on Facebook or with this post (“Share your thoughts” comment section). Also, please feel free to add your prayer intentions for the week, if you wish to do so. There is a prayer intention page on the Life Giving Bread website and a post for prayer intentions will be added to the chat room for this week.
