"PROMPTINGS OF THE HOLY SPIRIT"
The Holy
Spirit is always moving in hearts that are docile, present and open to
Blessings. Here is a list of promptings of the Holy Spirit in the hearts of
parishioners over the past one and half years. This list is also in no
particular order... all are legitimate promptings (i.e. "legal, moral
and affordable!") What can you add to this list as you prayerfully
listen to the promptings of the Holy Spirit in your heart?
