Jesus Christ walked the Holy Lands building a Church. Jesus Christ did not hand out Bibles saying, ‘Here read this & argue about it.’

There is ONE Church. The Saints in Heaven & the people on earth in a state of God’s Grace are all building blocks in the ONE Church.

In most Protestant Churches they have what is called a >’Prayer chain’ where people are asked to pray (Sometimes even Uncle Harry is asked to pray).

The Roman Catholic Church has a Prayer chain too & they also include the Saints in Heaven as part of the Prayer Chain. It’s that easy> as it’s intercessory prayer that includes the whole Church. (The people in Heaven & the people on Earth.)

A Priest in the Roman Catholic Church said, ‘God knows all our prayers before we pray them. God knows what we want & what we need. One of the purposes of prayers is to open our hearts to God so that God can transform our hearts.’

That's a perfect way to put it. Thank you.
