The following report comes to us from team leader Josette with our St. John’s SPSE team in Pottsville, PA:
We thought evangelizing at Reading was going to be another routine day, but this turned out to be no ordinary outing! When the team arrived at N. 5th and Penn Streets, we were surprised to see a different Christian church on every street corner, holding signs to “pray for our city”, “stop the violence”, and to give “hope to the hopeless.” The team prayed for several people and gave out rosaries and Miraculous Medals before being invited to unite and pray with them for the City of Reading and our nation. Being docile to The Holy Spirit, the team cheerfully obliged. But the surprises kept coming when the team was then approached by the local newspaper and TV station for comments.

This is what happens when you invite the Holy Spirit into everything, including your planning meetings!!
Praised be Jesus Christ!
