Notes About The Poem
Artist Eve Roper
Emmanuel - God Is With Us
Emmanuel
“God Is With Us “
God came down from heaven and became man
Gazing at the dark blanket sky fully embellished with glittering stars,
A crescent moon to light up the summer night
Saint Joachim and Saint Anne pray to have a child with a promise of
Dedicating their child to God's service
Mary the Mother of Jesus is that child
Through our Savior Jesus Christ birth and death, we are all redeemed from our sins
God's endowment to us is a new life filled with
Righteousness,
Peace,
Joy,
And closeness with Him
It saddens me that in our present time some have chosen to
Ban prayer in certain places
Does this really stop us from praying?
No man nor man-made law is going to stop us from praying
He is the heart of the edifice that hold us together keeps us strong and gives us hope.

Richard Lamoureux
A husband
A father
A friend
A christian
A photographer
A poet
A provider for his family, and fulfills his spiritual existence through prayer
A man that NO man nor man-made law is going to stop him from praying
That is who I think Richard Lamoureux is.
Missing Christ;
“Christianity, is not welcome here.”
