Dear Lovers,

Please consider each day to say a little prayer for our new WWME U.S. Secretariat Team. This is a huge responsibility and commit of personal time and energy. Please pray for their wisdom and ability to inspire each of us in our endeavors to renew the church and change the world. For a brief introduction to the new Team follow this link to Selection of New WWME U.S. Secretariat Team. Remember also in your prayers our past U.S. Secretariat Team Bob & Joy Hernandez and Monsignor Chuck Kosanke as they transition toward where God will be calling them next in their lives.
