YouTube Video by Catholic High School Students: “Where is God/The End of Prayer Shaming”

Earlier today, Archbishop Chaput shared a link to a powerful video on YouTube that was produced by students at East Catholic High School in the Archdiocese of Hartford.

 

Given recent natural disasters and violent unrest in our country, there has been much reason for prayer and to remember that prayer has power. I’m providing a link to the video for you here https://youtu.be/jFz4uUfPfN8.

 

It’s a wonderful witness by the young people in our Church and a moving reminder to us all as faithful sons and daughters of Christ that our prayers are never wasted or ignored by God.
