No Christian is meant to walk the journey of faith and life alone... From the earliest days of the Church, St. Paul encouraged the faithful to "Persevere in prayer," (Colossians 4:2) "Pray without ceasing," (1 Thessalonians 5:17) and "Have no anxiety at all, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, make your requests known to God." (Philippians 4:6)
"When God calls us to...petitionary prayer, to intercessory prayer...He's inviting us to come alongside Him, to work with Him, to will the good with Him, and to get to know His heart."
~ Fr. Mike Schmitz, from Ascension Presents
"Perpetual Eucharistic Adoration with exposition needs a great push. People ask me: 'What will convert America and save the world?' My answer is prayer. What we need is for every parish to come before Jesus in the Blessed Sacrament in holy hours of prayer."
- Saint Teresa of Calcutta
