Prayer Reflection from your Prayer Fraternity

(flower garden at Ava - butterflies love it)
 
Prayer Reflection from St. John Vianney
 
Recommending liturgical prayer, St. John Vianney would say:
 
"Private prayer is like straw scattered here and there:  If you set it on fire, it makes a lot of little flames.   But gather those straws into a bundle and light them, and you get a mighty fire, rising like a column into the sky;  public prayer is like that."
