Pastor Willie F. Pride, Jr.
Words of encouragement for us today
In times like these...
This is the day for all the world to pray the prayer Jesus gave to His disciples:
Our Father which art in heaven, Hallowed be thy name.
Thy kingdom come, Thy will be done in earth, as it is in heaven.
Give us this day our daily bread.
And forgive us our debts, as we forgive our debtors.
And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil: For thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, for ever. Amen.
This prayer is for us today. We are asking all people of every nationality all over the world to make this an hourly prayer in your homes, to make this prayer your prayer at this time.
Pray this prayer, not just one time, but throughout the day. Translate it into your own language, if necessary.
Let us love on each other with a virtual hug.
