Inside of the antique store in Columbia, PA. |
Directly inside the book is written Paul H. Woods, Christmas 1962. The book has been used hard over those 54 years that he has owned it. For years he read the prayer for the day and when he passed a few years ago, I began to read the prayer. Every so often one of my grandkids will read the prayer, but they are getting "too old" for that now, so I have taken over once again. The booklet is a daily prayer book with extra prayers for special occasions. Needless to say, this is a special occasion and the prayer will go like this today: This day, O Christ, we celebrate Thy victory over death. Bring to us new life of body through this nourishment, and new life of soul by Thy presence with us now an help us to say with Thy servant of old, "Thanks be to God which giveth us the victory through Jesus Christ our Lord." Amen. From my family to your family, we wish you a Joyous Easter. It was another extraordinary day in the life of an ordinary guy.
