Today we raced in the region of Brittany and watched the crowds as they gathered along the roadside.  Cycling is loved by the people of Brittany from the local races to the national and international races.  Pray for the people along the road today.

Father we pray for the people of Brittany.  We pray that they will love you with all their heart and soul and mind.  Lord, we pray for a growth of love in our hearts for our brothers and sisters in Christ and for those who need you as their Father.  We pray  for all these things in the name of Jesus Christ.  Amen.
