Hello, I am Teena Ingram,

General Manager for Specialist Family
and Support services with Centacare.

00:00:05,505 --> 00:00:09,175
I am joining you today to share our
Pope’s Prayer Intention for March,
4
00:00:09,175 --> 00:00:10,377
Families in Crisis.
5
00:00:10,977 --> 00:00:12,012
The Pope has said,
6
00:00:12,012 --> 00:00:15,915
“Let us pray that broken families might
discover the cure for their wounds
7
00:00:15,915 --> 00:00:17,150
through forgiveness,
8
00:00:17,150 --> 00:00:19,019
rediscovering each other’s gifts,
9
00:00:19,019 --> 00:00:20,520
even in their difference.”
10
00:00:20,954 --> 00:00:23,223
We keep Pope Francis in our prayers.
11
00:00:23,923 --> 00:00:26,459
Supporting families to heal and move forwards
12
00:00:26,459 --> 00:00:29,529
is an integral part of what our family support services do.
13
00:00:30,063 --> 00:00:32,399
There is much need in the world for forgiveness,
14
00:00:32,399 --> 00:00:33,900
tolerance and peace,
15
00:00:33,900 --> 00:00:35,702
particularly for broken families.
16
00:00:36,269 --> 00:00:38,638
Family should be safe, nurturing and loving.
17
00:00:39,105 --> 00:00:41,541
Family is what sets us on our path in this world.
18
00:00:42,008 --> 00:00:43,977
They are our foundation in formative years
19
00:00:43,977 --> 00:00:46,846
and support us as we mature and find our own ways.
20
00:00:47,347 --> 00:00:48,081
But for some,
21
00:00:48,081 --> 00:00:50,283
there is a shattering that feels insurmountable,
22
00:00:50,283 --> 00:00:53,119
often with blame, anger, hurt and fear.
23
00:00:54,454 --> 00:00:58,625
Many things can lead to families reaching points of crisis,
24
00:00:58,625 --> 00:01:00,293
and with God’s grace,
25
00:01:00,293 --> 00:01:02,062
our work can help them find healing.
26
00:01:02,896 --> 00:01:05,098
Let’s pray for families in crisis.
27
00:01:05,098 --> 00:01:06,900
Let us pray that they find peace,
28
00:01:06,900 --> 00:01:08,334
forgiveness and acceptance.
29
00:01:08,635 --> 00:01:10,770
That their wounds can start to heal,
30
00:01:10,770 --> 00:01:14,140
that they are able to see past
the pain, bitterness and anger;
31
00:01:14,140 --> 00:01:16,976
and to love despite overwhelming pain and grief.
32
00:01:16,976 --> 00:01:17,777
Amen.
33
00:03:42,322 --> 00:03:44,057
