Bible Reading: Mark 1:35
Catechism Reading: Paragraph #2744
Introduction:
As we just read in the Catechism, prayer is a necessity. It is what keeps us close to God when we need Him the most like when there is suffering in our life. I would like to share part of a video with you where Collin Raye mentions the suffering of his granddaughter.

In the Bonus Video below you can learn the source of Collin's strong foundation in his faith that allowed him to maintain his faith in God and write the following song about his granddaughter.
Collin Raye - She's With Me (4:11)
In this parent session I want to highlight the Decision Point session we will be covering next week with your kids. As I mentioned in the first parent session, as parents you are the primary teachers and I want to use the videos from this session to equip you to help your children build a strong prayer life. We will learn how we benefit from prayer by helping us better answer the following questions: Who are you? What are you here for? What matters Most? and What matters Least? It is knowing the answers to these questions that will prepare us, as it did Collin, for whatever comes our way in life.

- Video: The Journey Home - 6-11-12 - Collin Raye
- This is a good interview where Collin shares his faith background. I like this interview because you will see the strong foundation of his faith that allowed him to persevere through the health problems of family members around him including his granddaughter who passed away in 2010.
