2nd Glorious Mystery - The Ascension
Hail Mary,  Full of Grace, The Lord is with thee. 
Blessed art thou among women, and blessed is the fruit of thy womb, Jesus. 
Holy Mary, Mother of God, 
pray for us sinners now, and at the hour of our death.  Amen.

GOD MOMENT
"Holy Mary, Pray for Us."

MUSIC
"Alleluia, Sing To Jesus"
"Ave Maria"

I BELIEVE

That is the theme of the two songs today for Concert Friday. The first is slower, more reflective and thoughtful. The second, more upbeat and toe tapping. But both songs testify to the Lord as the One who leads us and blesses us in life.

1. I Believe by Mike Renick

2. The Wonder of You by ...you-know-who

Boasting
We all boast at one time or another.  As annoying as it may be when someone else is boasting, we don't seem to mind doing it ourselves.  But, boasting has a good side to it.  This is especially true when we boast in the Lord.

Galatians 6: 14
(Psalm 128 - "Blessed Are Those Who Love You" - Marty Haugen)

GOD MOMENT
"Let in Boast in the cross of Christ"

MUSIC

Beloved
Every once in a while, it's good to be reminded that each one of us in the "beloved" of God.  As His beloved, God is always with us and caring for every aspect of our life.

SCRIPTURE
Colossians 3:12
(Psalm 67)

GOD MOMENT
"You are my beloved"

"Hosea"

We learn from Joshua in the scripture today that there might be another way to look at the forces in life that seem to want to knock us down. Do you want to "prosper and be successful in all that you do"? God tells us.

SCRIPTURE
Joshua 1: 7-8

Wonderfully Made
Today we explore the truth that each of us has been fearfully and wonderfully made by God.  We are worthwhile and important to God's plan.

(Ps. 18)

Thank you Lord for make me, "me!"
