🌞 Agape Love Ministry Blog – May 22, 2025 🌼

“This is the day which the Lord hath made; we will rejoice and be glad in it.” – Psalm 118:24 (KJV)

Hello, sweet Agape Love family!Today is a beautiful day filled with joy, faith, history, and a whole lot of fun! Let’s take a stroll through the blessings and celebrations of May 22nd—along with a free adventure idea to make today extra special!

✝️ Christian Observances

Saint Rita of Cascia Day (Feast Day)Today, many honor Saint Rita, known as the Patron Saint of Impossible Causes. Her life was marked by tragedy, transformation, and unshakable faith. Married young to a harsh husband, she endured suffering with grace and became an Augustinian nun after his death. Her deep prayer life reminds us that nothing is impossible with God (Luke 1:37).

Take a moment today to pray for those facing the “impossible” and ask God to move mountains in their lives.

🇺🇸 National Holidays – USA

🌽 National Buy a Musical Instrument DayA joyful excuse to pick up a guitar, strum a ukulele, or finally learn that keyboard tune you’ve had in your head! Praise Him with the harp, strings, and cymbals! (Psalm 150:4-5)
