Today is the wonderful feast of the Conversion of St Paul. I know there are so many people here seeking the conversion of a loved one.
I would like to offer my prayers for you today - that St Paul may carry our prayers to Jesus and lay them there at His feet.

Please join me in adding your prayer request or in offering your prayers.

**Profile of St. Paul
** Jewish Talmudic student. Pharisee. Tent-maker by trade. Saul the Jew hated and persecuted Christians as heretical, even assisting at the stoning of Saint Stephen the Martyr. On his way to Damascus to arrest another group of them, he was knocked
to the ground, struck blind by a heavenly light, and given the message that in persecuting Christians, he was persecuting Christ. The experience had a profound spiritual effect on him, causing his conversion to Christianity. He was baptized,
changed his name to Paul to reflect his new persona, and began travelling and preaching. Martyr.
Born
c.3 as Saul at Tarsus, Cilicia (modern Turkey)

God Bless you all.

jrabs…what a wonderful gift you have given us with this post. 🙂

Saint Paul is so special to my family. I began reading his letters when I was age seven and to this day I still use them for meditative contemplation in order to better live the Word.

I unite all my intentions with yours since they are the same.

I will pray that many others see and respond to this wonderful post.

Well, then let’s pray also to St Gregory for intercession in the fight for converting souls.

Dear St. Gregory, please hear our prayers and lay them at Our Lord’s feet.
