Description: "Music" Music has been with us probably from the beginning of the human race, and in each of our lives from our mothers cooing or singing to us. It has the power to affect us, like when David played for Saul. It can take us out of ourselves and connect us with the angels. And as we sing to the Lord, He can bring us closer together in charity and mutual love.

Description: Many of us have questions about prayer: how should we pray? Who do I pray to? And does my prayer actually make a difference? The Lord's disciples had similar questions, and this Sunday we'll be talking about the Lord's response when they said to Him, "Lord, teach us to pray."
