This was one of those weeks. Between Faith on Fires, Confirmation Retreats, and a Shine Retreat, we have just survived nine different events, and we are not through yet! Tomorrow night we have our biweekly Bible Studies, Inspire! and Teen Disciples.
It is during weeks like these, when we are sometimes a little tired, that we see more than ever how much we depend on the Holy Spirit. Why? Because He gives us strength to not merely survive our busy weeks, but to absolutely thrive!
I can honestly say that while I am physically a little tired, I am also more spiritually energized than I have been in a long time!
We have met so many awesome students who are excited about their faith, from the middle school students at Seton to the Confirmation candidates of St. Margaret Mary and St. Patrick. A little farther from our home base in Menasha, we've also met young people from the Tri-Parishes in Sherwood/Stockbridge/Hilbert, St. John Catholic School in Princeton, St. Catherine of Siena in Ripon, and Holy Family Parish in Fond du Lac. As always, we are humbled and awed by the Holy Spirit's ability to use us to ignite faith and change lives everywhere we go.
Please continue to pray for us during this busy season that the Holy Spirit will continue to give us everything we need to continue to thrive in ministry.
God Bless,
Jared
