Closing Prayer<\/strong><\/p>\n

God,<\/em>
\nyou choose us by name.<\/em>
\nThis Lent, give us the <\/em>courage to face the <\/em>temptations put before us.<\/em>
\nThrough the example of <\/em>prayer, fasting and giving, <\/em>shown to us by your Son,
\n<\/em>may we too be graced to <\/em>bring love into the world.<\/em>
\nThis we ask with the <\/em>guidance of the Holy Spirit.<\/em><\/p>\n

Amen<\/em><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":4,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"yst_prominent_words":[],"class_list":["post-503","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-uncategorised"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/stagnesparish.org.au\/our-faith\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/503","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/stagnesparish.org.au\/our-faith\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/stagnesparish.org.au\/our-faith\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/stagnesparish.org.au\/our-faith\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/4"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/stagnesparish.org.au\/our-faith\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=503"}],"version-history":[{"count":49,"href":"https:\/\/stagnesparish.org.au\/our-faith\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/503\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":713,"href":"https:\/\/stagnesparish.org.au\/our-faith\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/503\/revisions\/713"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/stagnesparish.org.au\/our-faith\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=503"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/stagnesparish.org.au\/our-faith\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=503"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/stagnesparish.org.au\/our-faith\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=503"},{"taxonomy":"yst_prominent_words","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/stagnesparish.org.au\/our-faith\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/yst_prominent_words?post=503"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
