The outpourings of grace that result will equip people to bring change into their own lives which in turn will have a positive impact on the world. Lumen families are encouraged to use the Year of Grace prayer throughout the year. Further Information about the Year of Grace is available via http://thefaith.org.au/year-of-grace/year-of-grace/
