I could go on another rant about all this silliness going on in our nation over the mandate, but I won't. Nope, I refuse. Instead, I will ooze out my JOY over the Catholic ACTION going on because of it. I mean, really, people are waking up to their faith, whether they like it or not! This alone is a big deal!!

| Celebratin' it up. Catholic style. |
I'll even go a step further...
this may be one of the most important times in the history of the American Catholic Church. We are living in a prime time to
die to ourselves and
live it up for our faith. And we get to be around others of our same Catholic belief, doing the same thing, and push one another on in our struggle (And kudos to our Christian brethren standing by our sides. Because they see what's going on too.). I don't know about you, but I'm super stoked for what our future holds in the next couple of years. Either we will persevere and ensure that this mandate against religious freedom does not last, or the mandate will remain and we will see a huge Catholic resistance and America will get its wake up call as hospitals and schools close.

| Yup. It's coming. |
Either way, it's a win-win situation. So
be strong in the Lord, and celebrate! You're a part of the
New Evangelization! Breathe in the air of the
Springtime of the Church and let's live it up for the Lord!

Great post, Chelsea. It was a breath of fresh air for me. My brain is so weary of all this I could honestly cry. I honestly refuse to even talk about it on my blog. I just can't. But props to you and many thanks for the inspiration.
ReplyDeleteThank you for your wonderful enthusiasm and positive attitude! I think I can speak for all of the wonderful people here at KCCSC that we are definitely alive and on fire with the faith. Father Bernie gave an amazing homily speaking to his hope for our generation... Thank you for your hope!
ReplyDeleteAmen! KCCSC was awesome. Fr. Bernie's homily was great, and the speakers were amazing! The entire weekend was wonderful!
ReplyDeleteThe hope we have and the passion and light of our generation has to, HAS TO, shine and burn bright. If we don't stand up, who will? If not now, when? God bless, and keep writing these amazing words!
