Show notes

In this episode, Fr. John and Mary talk about the Rescue Project and invite everyone to pray and fast for this new ACTS XXIX initiative.

Rescue Project Prayer

Good and gracious Father, we come before Your throne of grace seeking both Your blessing and protection upon the Rescue Project. We ask in a most particular way for Your anointing upon Fr. John Riccardo as he preaches the gospel and that You would stir the Holy Spirit within him so that the hearts of those who hear the proclamation of the gospel would be overwhelmed, make a decision to surrender their lives to Jesus Christ by faith and set out on mission.

Father, we ask that You place a hedge of protection around every facet of this project including Fr. John, our ACTS XXIX team, our families, our ministry partners, the technology, the ministry space, and each and every person who will attend. Seal this work in the most Precious Blood of Your Son, Jesus Christ.

We pray, Father, that the Rescue Project will bear fruit in the lives of Your people and will advance the Kingdom of God here on earth. We make this prayer in the name of Jesus, our Rescuer.

Our Lady of Sorrows, pray for us!
St. Joseph, terror of demons, pray for us!
St. Joan of Arc, pray for us!
St. Paul, pray for us!

Amen.
