I have began trying to share my faith. Some people get mad at me and say I’m. To religious and I should act my age since I’m a teenager i have lost most of my friends pray that I have the courage to share my faith.
 
Je vous salue, Marie, pleine de grâce.
Le Seigneur est avec vous.
Vous êtes bénie entre toutes les femmes,
et Jésus, le fruit de vos entrailles, est béni.
Sainte Marie, Mère de Dieu,
Priez pour nous, pauvres pécheurs,
maintenant et à l’heure de notre mort.
Amen
 
French! How cool! 🙂

Anyway…it’s hard trying to share one’s faith. It would probably be much easier to try it on the forum than in society!

Hail Mary, Full of Grace, the Lord is with thee. Blessed art thou amongst women, and blest is the fruit of thy womb, Jesus. Holy Mary, Mother of God, pray for us sinners now and at the hour of our death. Amen. :angel1:

Live your faith, go to church, receive the Eucharist, Confession etc. and share your new-found treasure with people you feel are going to be receptive and respectful, also known as (AKA) “don’t throw your pearls before swine”.
 
Do you have a teen group you can join? In my time, we had CYO. I heard some have Life Teen.

We actually do need people to evangelize. I just honestly don’t know the best way to go about that!
 
Oh wait, when I was young, I remember going on some retreats. We needed people to help with those. They involved bunches of young people. Maybe you could find an outlet for your desire to evangelize through something like that.

We had retreats called IMPACT and I think…was it SEARCH?
 
Hail Mary,
Full of Grace,
The Lord is with thee.
Blessed art thou among women,
and blessed is the fruit
of thy womb, Jesus.
Holy Mary,
Mother of God,
pray for us sinners now,
and at the hour of our death.
Amen.
 
That’s funny. People tell me to act my age all the time, but since I’m twice your age, it more than likely means something quite different. At any rate, you are already much braver than I was when I was a teenager, and you have my respect and gratitude.

Offering a decade o the Rosary for this intention.
 
Our Father who art in Heaven, hallowed be thy name.

Thy kingdom come, thy will be done on Earth as it is in Heaven.

Give us this day our daily bread.

And forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us.

And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil.

Amen.

Hail Mary, full of grace, the Lord is with thee.

Blessed are you among women, and blessed is the fruit of your womb Jesus.

Holy Mary, Mother of God, pray for us sinners, now and at the hour of our death.

Amen.

I hope you do not mind if I ask you exactly to tell me an example or two of what do you tell your friends when you say that you share your faith with them?
Let the examples be the ones you considere more important and is costing you their friendship.

Then I may tell you something else… mean while I will say a prayer for you and let ask our Lord Jesus to englighten our minds and hearts so that we may always be close to him.
 
Prayers that your faith impacts others to follow Jesus, and leads them to the Catholic church.

Hail Mary,
Full of grace,the Lord is with Thee.
Blessed art Thou amoungst women,
And blessed is the fruit of Thy womb,
Jesus.
Holy Mary,
Mother of God,
Pray for us sinners,
Now and at the hour of death,
Amen

Wow. I’m having much the same problem. I can’t seem to find the courage to share my Faith. I do say I’m a Catholic but I’m somewhat a coward, never willing to disclose how pious I am.

I will be praying that God gives you courage and that the Spirit enlighten you. Please pray for me too!

God bless.

Good point here.

Praying for your strength and courage to be what and who you are within your faith.
 
A lot of my friends are not really into there faith so I try to tell them the importance of going to church. And a lot of them do bad stuff so I try to tell them it’s not right what there going. And I have some non Catholics friends and they think Catholics are wrong and for example Mary or the Eucharist or having a physical church. And i have changed and have become closer to God so I stopped doing a lot of stuff and my friends say that I should change back to how I use to be most of them won’t even talk to me
 
Prayed for you. May the Lord comfort you and give you courage to continue to share your faith. The Lord has called you to do this and you are being obedient. Thank you for inspiring us. May the Lord give you the words to say that will soften the listener’s heart.

In Jesus’ name Amen.

Lord hear our prayer!
 
Praying that the Lord may strengthen you and bless you as you grow in the Faith. Also praying that you may find a way to reach out to your friends.

Hail Mary, full of grace, the Lord is with thee. Blessed art thou amongst women, and blessed is the fruit of thy womb, Jesus.
Holy Mary, Mother of God, pray for us sinners, now and at the hour of our death. Amen
