The Lord kickstarted Lynne's faith by asking her, "What are you waiting for?" She started diving deep into her prayer life and faith but it was all private, internal, and unsustainable. Then, she was invited many times to a Cursillo Retreat, and she finally agreed.

What are you waiting for? Let Jesus love you. 

The joyful Ken Pack joined us this week to discusses his conversion, his family, and his journey with God. Ken shares that we are never alone in the world!

If you are feeling alone and isolated, remember that you have a faith community and a God who loves you! 

Gary was blessed with a strong faithful family that helped guide and embolden him in his faith. Though, like many, he hid his faith from family and friends. With the help of his wife and children, he has been able to wear his faith on his sleeve. 

His story is a wonderful example of strong faithful families leading their children and later generations closer to heaven. When is the last time you spoke to your family members about your faith? When is the last time you prayed with your family?
