But they will not ask his help unless they believe in him, and they will not believe in him unless they have heard of him, and they will not hear of him unless they get a preacher, and they will never have a preacher unless one is sent.Paul writes to the Church in Rome that salvation is for everyone who hears the word of God but for salvation to be accepted it must be heard and to be heard it must be preached.
Rms.10:14,15
I can't help thinking of the Alpha Course when reading this scripture. Alpha is very effective at preaching the word. Alpha is also an easy way "to be sent".
I need five more people to join the Alpha host team in our parish. Then we can be sent....
Lord Jesus, if it be your will for an Alpha Course to happen in our parish, send the workers.
Saint Andrew, pray for us.
