This year it starts on Sunday, November 29th and ends on Christmas Eve, Thursday, December 24th. The word, “Advent” means “coming.” This season is a time of prayer and preparation, which not only honors the birth of the Christ Child, but also helps us to prepare our hearts to receive our King, Jesus Christ, for the second coming. (1 Thess. 4: 16-17) “For the Lord, Himself, will come down from Heaven, with a loud command… The season is represented by a display of the Advent wreath which symbolizes eternity, no be- ginning and no end, five candles; three purple, one pink, and one white in the center which rep- resent the themes of the Advent Season.

  • A Daily Prayer (In Sections) Added Names of God -Edit
    The Daily Prayer Page 1 of 2 This extended version of the Daily Prayer is a compilation of several prayers brought together by Joshua Rupp, Worship Arts Director at Gaylord E-Free Church. These include excerpts from: the Prayer of St Patrick, the Jesus Prayer, the Trisagian Prayer, and the names of God whose meanings are written out as a prayer. However, the bulk of the Daily Prayer was constructed by Ransomed Heart Ministries with John Eldridge. Here is an explanation of the prayer from ransomedheart.com: Over the years we have grown in our understanding of prayer, and spiritual warfare, and of our need to be restored in the life of God each day. And so we have developed this prayer, which we call The Daily Prayer. It is entirely based on Scripture, almost like praying the Scriptures. May it be a source of life to you. Daily. Invocation: Jehovah-Elohim: transcendent Trinity and Creator of all, Jehova-Yahweh: the Self Existing “I Am” whose covenant with me is as endless as Your eternal existence, Jehovah-Jireh: the Lord my provider of all needs physical, emotional, spiritual and relational, Jehovah-Rophe: the Lord my Healer who aligns my body in health and wholeness and mends the broken wings of my soul through love, hope, faith and forgiveness, Jehovah-Nissi: the Lord my Banner and my 10 foot flag to rally and motivate my heart and all my valiant energies, Jehovah-M'Kaddesh: the Lord who Sanctifies me, sets me apart for holiness and consecrates me to a life of obedience, Jehovah-Shalom: the Lord my Peace when life doesn't makes sense, when

  • FSCNY Joins Forces with Hispanic Federation to Support Puerto Rico
    PRESS RELEASE CHECK CASHERS JOIN THE HISPANIC FEDERATION IN HURRICANE RECOVERY RELIEF INITIATIVE IN SUPPORT OF PUERTO RICO November 8, 2017 – The Financial Service Centers of New York (FSCNY), the trade organization that represents the check cashing industry in the State of New York, today announced a partnership with the Hispanic Federation to benefit the "Unidos" Disaster Relief & Recovery Program, created to meet hurricane-related needs and recovery in Puerto Rico. From now through November 30, 2017, over 300 participating check cashing stores (also known as financial service centers) across the state will serve as cash donation points for the ongoing initiative that has already raised over $20 million, for immediate relief of the humanitarian crisis plus short and long-terms initiatives for the sustainable rebuilding of the U.S. territory. “The situation is still dire in Puerto Rico. Seven weeks after Hurricane Maria, power and clean water are still tenuous, there is limited access to medical help, leaving an unbearable number of our people grasping for the most basic needs.” said José Calderón, president of the Hispanic Federation. “This is a humanitarian crisis unlike any we've seen on the island, and we will continue to do everything we can to help families and communities throughout Puerto Rico recover and heal. We are grateful to FSCNY and its participating members for this important effort to support our Puerto Rico relief efforts.” Launched merely hours after Hurricane Maria struck Puerto Rico on September 20th, Unidos brought into Puerto Rico some of the first humanitarian flights carrying life- saving supplies. Since then, the program has provided life-saving and stabilizing relief to dozens of communities, municipalities, families and organizations, primarily in areas difficult to reach by responders following the storm.

  • Cultural and Historical Resources Recovery Planning in Puerto Rico Natural and Cultural Resources Sector Report, Volume II
    Cultural and Historical Resources Recovery Planning in Puerto Rico Natural and Cultural Resources Sector Report, Volume II SUSAN A. RESETAR, JAMES V. MARRONE, JOSHUA MENDELSOHN, AMY SCHWARTZMAN, DAVID M. ADAMSON HS AC HOMELAND SECURITY OPERATIONAL ANALYSIS CENTER An FFRDC operated by the RAND Corporation under contract with DHS rr2859_cover_v6.indd 1,3 9/3/20 10:01 AM Published in 2020 Preface On August 8, 2018, the government of Puerto Rico submitted to Congress its economic and disaster recovery plan, as required by the Bipartisan Budget Act of 2018. Under contract with the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA), the Homeland Security Operational Analysis Center (HSOAC) provided substantial support in developing the plan by soliciting and integrating inputs from a wide variety of stakeholders, contributing analysis where needed, and drafting the plan. The plan included an overview of damage and needs, courses of action (COAs) to meet those needs, costs of the COAs, and potential funding mechanisms for those costs. To support federal agencies evaluating and funding recovery actions, HSOAC is releasing this detailed volume for the cultural resources sector. The work is based on data available during the time of the analysis, February 2018 to July 2018. The purpose of this document is to provide decisionmakers with any available information on the conditions in Puerto Rico prior to the 2017 hurricane season, damage from Hurricanes Irma and Maria, COAs that were identified to help the sector (and, more broadly, Puerto Rico) recover in a resilient manner, potential funding mechanisms, and considerations for implementers as they move forward. More information about HSOAC’s contribution to planning for recovery in Puerto Rico, along with links to other reports being published as part of this series, can be found at www.rand.org/hsoac/puerto-rico- recovery.
