“We should not grow discouraged before examples of holiness that appear unattainable… The important thing is that each believer discern his or her own path, that they bring out the very best of themselves, the most personal gifts that God has placed in their heart.” – Pope Francis, Rejoice and Be Glad
What are the gifts that God has given you? How might you utilize those gifts to set the world and the Church ablaze? During our time together, we will explore ways that we can be attentive, intentional, and cooperative with God’s grace in serving the world. Pope Francis believes the Church to be a field hospital after battle. We will discuss how to discern God’s call to reach out to others and be an instrument of Christ’s love and compassion whether single, married or in a relationship.
