The Agony in the Garden.                                                                             Matthew 26:36 et seq

36 Then Jesus came with them to a place called Gethsemane, and he said to his disciples, “Sit here while I go over there and pray.”37 He took along Peter and the two sons of Zebedee, and began to feel sorrow and distress.38 Then he said to them, “My soul is sorrowful even to death. Remain here and keep watch with me.”39 He advanced a little and fell prostrate in prayer, saying, “My Father, if it is possible, let this cup pass from me; yet, not as I will, but as you will.”40 When he returned to his disciples he found them asleep. He said to Peter, “So you could not keep watch with me for one hour?41 Watch and pray that you may not undergo the test. The spirit is willing, but the flesh is weak.”42  Withdrawing a second time, he prayed again, “My Father, if it is not possible that this cup pass without my drinking it, your will be done!”43 Then he returned once more and found them asleep, for they could not keep their eyes open. 44 He left them and withdrew again and prayed a third time, saying the same thing again.45 Then he returned to his disciples and said to them, “Are you still sleeping and taking your rest? Behold, the hour is at hand when the Son of Man is to be handed over to sinners. 46 Get up, let us go. Look, my betrayer is at hand.”

Spend an hour in prayer for The Church.

When events are such that The Church, her leaders and her faithful need prayers, the internet provides us with a wonderful opportunity to come together in prayer at a place as events dictate.

How it works:  Print out the picture of Watch with Him, and place it in the seat/pew next to you so that you may be identified and joined by others.

Please be prayerful, without spectacle or any kind of raucous behavior.
