Hi everyone!
I have been a Catholic High school teacher now for thirteen years teaching both Spanish and Religion /Theology courses. This past year I was asked by my principal to just teach Religion. I was excited for the change and it truly has been a great year!
I am asking for your prayers for two students of mine. They both have approached me to be Baptized and to be received into the Church! My heart is overflowing with joy and in amazement of how much the Holy Spirit is working and how humbling it has been. Humbling in that, one of the boys, Jonathan, is not of any faith at all. When he, myself, and his mom met with the RCIA/RCIC coordinator at the Cathedral (they are our “parish” as they are across the street from us) and she asked him why he wanted to be Catholic, he pointed at me and said “It’s because of Mr. Reyes.” I was moved to tears.
Please pray for my students, particularly Jonathan and Shea, as we journey together on this new path of faith. Please pray for me also, that I can truly be a good example for them and take to heart the words (my favorite words I should note
) of St. John the Baptist: “I must decrease so He can increase.” and allow the Lord to use me as he sees fit.
Thank you my Catholic Family!
In Christ!
