READING! “My Paper.li” for Friday, May 22nd

Hey- it’s the start of the Memorial Day weekend!

Remember, while you might want to get out and take a vacation, the coronavirus doesn’t care because it doesn’t take a vacation.

Here’s the link to The Week and the Five Things to Know Today as I think this is a good, balanced source for solid information.

Do check out also The Conversation and the Good News Network site

And for prayer and faith resources, I highly recommend The Creighton U. Daily Reflections

Thursday is the day the week’s prayer is updated at World in Prayer. I find this to be a good way to connect, in prayer, with the specific needs for the world right now.

If you have 15 minutes for a good listen, do check out yesterday’s episode of The Good News Ride Home podcast .

Here’s today’s The Daily 202 Big Idea by The Washington Post. which I listened to a little while ago.
