Wednesday Night Lessons

Last night we started a 6 week series at our church and each week contains a different topic. The RCIA candidates of the church wanted more and so both priests opened it up to everyone. I couldn't believe the people that showed up. What a blessing to have such a large group. This week's topic was the Mass. Why do we do what we do? I remembered a lot from RCIA, but it was still a good refresher. One thing Fr Ryan said was that people complain that they don't get anything our of mass. That's not why we go. We don't go to get...we go to give. Give thanks to our God for all He is and all He has done. Kinda makes it easier to go now, doesn't it? Afterwards we met up with some acquatances of ours, wonderful people we hope to get to know better, and picked at their brains for another hour afterwards along w/ the priest. Truly genuine people who are on fire for the Lord, who also had some great child rearing advice. And I may have a babysitter already!
