PRAY.
In your life, is there someone who has left the Church? Perhaps a parent, spouse, child, friend, or other loved one. God wants all his children to return to him, and we are called to help them on their journey. This week, pray for that person, that God has put on your heart. Pray for healing, and for an openness of mind, and heart.
