The following are words given by participants at the streamed meeting. 1 Corinthians 14:29 says that "Two or three prophets should speak, and the others weigh carefully what is said." 1 Thess 5:19-21 tells us not to despise prophecies, but to test everything and retain what is good.
At beginning of meeting, Scripture Reading John 17 - When the hour had come for him to pass from this world to the Father, Jesus looked up to heaven and said, "Now I am no longer in the world but they are in the world and I am coming to you. Holy Father, protect them in your name that you have given me so that they may be one as we are one. I'm not asking you to take them out of the world but I ask you to protect them from the Evil One. They do not belong to the world, just as I do not belong to the world. Sanctify them in the truth. Your word is truth."
Jesus will always take care of us.
Scripture Reading Psalm 34:4, 9-10 - "I seek Yahweh and he answers me and frees me from all my fears. Fear Yahweh, you his holy ones: those who fear him want for nothing. The young lion may go empty and hungry, but those who seek Yahweh lack nothing good."
Scripture Reading 1 Thess 5:4-9 - "You are not in darkness for that day to overtake you like a thief. For all of you are children of the light and children of the day. We are not of the night or of darkness. Therefore, let us not sleep as the rest do, but let us stay alert and sober. Those who sleep go to sleep at night, and those who are drunk get drunk at night. But since we are of the day, let us be sober, putting on the breastplate of faith and love and the helmet that is hope for salvation. For God did not destine us for wrath, but to gain salvation through our Lord Jesus Christ."
Scripture Reading Luke 9:37-43 - "The next day, when they had come down from the mountain, a great crowd met Jesus. Just then, a man from the crowd shouted, "Teacher, I beg you to look at my son, he is my only living child. Suddenly a spirit seizes of him, and all at once he shrieks, it convulses him, and he foams at the mouth. It mauls him and refuses to leave him. I begged your disciples to cast it out, but they could not. Jesus answered, 'You faithless and perverted generation! How much longer must I be with you and bear with you? Bring your son here!' While he was coming, the demon dashed him on the ground and threw him into convulsions. But Jesus rebuked the unclean spirit, healed the boy, and gave him back to his father. And all were astounded at the greatness of God."
Scripture Reading Psalm 108:1-4 - "My heart is steadfast, O God; I will sing, I will sing praises even with my soul. Awake, harp and lyre; I will awaken the dawn! I will give thanks to you, O Lord, among the peoples, and I will sing praises to you among the nations. For your loving kindness is great above the heavens, and your truth reaches to the sky."

May the land enjoy prosperity; may it experience righteousness. May the king judge the poor fairly; may he help the needy and defeat their oppressors. May your people worship you as long as the sun shines, as long as the moon gives light, for ages to come."

Renee Sylvain from Madonna House in Combermere, Ontario spoke on "Sobornost" which is a Russian word for "unity", a concept from the Russian Church. Bowing to the image of God in each other. Living out this love in action. In the Our Father, it's OUR Father. We share a Father who has created us in his image. We pray for his will to be done on earth, and he made clear to us his will in the Final Discourses, "Love one another." Being open to hearing from the other. Trying to live this way pushes us to lean toward God and see what he wants to do in this situation. Pope Francis called for a synod and the main purpose was to take time to listen. This is the first step for building unity. Catherine Dougherty: "It takes everything that you are and have to really communicate with the other." Which means to be involved with the other. When Renee is on an airplane she usually finds herself seated by someone who has left the Catholic Church and who wants to tell their story. She has learned not to take this personally. This particular time, the man beside her proceeded to tell her why he left the church and he expected her to try to convince him to return. Renee was given the grace to tell him, "No, my job today is to treat you with kindness and respect. It's not my job to get you back into the church." Then Renee asked him if she could tell him why she stayed. Then he asked her many personal questions, which she answered. She just kept not getting into an argument with him. Then she would refocus on the message that God loves him, not always using those words. She listened and connected with what they had in common, such as loneliness, etc. Just before landing, he told her that for the first time in 20 years, you have me believing God exists. By the time they landed, he had a plan for returning to the church. He had the plan; it all came from him because the Holy Spirit spoke to him. During the sharing time, Renee told us how God used this situation to show her that she was confirmed in her vocation, that she reheard her call to love and serve God and his people. (It was a powerful witness.) There are 200 at Madonna House: laity, priests, men, women. During Covid, they made a choice to listen to each other's view points, to be little, not judge and to trust God. The face of God is each one of us. We have fears. Can I let go of the outcome?
Rosalie gave praise to God and thanked us for our prayers. Her son has found a carpenter to work for him.
Helen's niece was diagnosed in January with stage four lung cancer. The doctors are using a pill that is a match with her immune system. The tumors in her brain and liver are shrinking. Her energy has improved. Thank you, Lord. And more prayer for continued healing.

Also, today Richard had a check up because he had been diagnosed with Non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma awhile back; and everything is perfect. Richard thanked the Lord!
