Praying for our government

I’ve been waiting for an article I read last month in the print version of Restoration to go online.  (Restoration is a Madonna House publication.)  It’s entitled “Praying for the American Government” and was written by Cynthia Donnelly, a Madonna House staffer, who lives in a house in Washington, D.C.. The house was set up by Cardinal James Hickey specifically for the purpose of praying for the American government.  I share the story here because sometimes I feel overwhelmed thinking about the best way to pray for our government. I suspect there are others of you out there who think the same.  After I read this article, I had hope. I thought, “I can do this–and actually I do do this.”  You can read it here.

What are your thoughts?
