HI Whatevergirl!!

It went well!! Thanks for asking! 👍 Honestly, MM did the talkin’ while I took care of fussy boy the whole time. MM did great! He did say ‘um’ a lot but hopefully no one but me noticed;)

By the way, MM would be great at doing this on the high school level, especially since he used to work w/ teens on the LifeTeen group at his old Parish. Maybe you are right, he could go around and give talks to parish youth groups on this topic but more on the younger level?? Hmmm, WG, YOU might be on to something! 🤷
 
Sorry WG, did not see this thread until you posted in the other one. Here is my update for those that are interested:

I wanted to say thanks to everyone that posted comments and suggestions, they really came in handy.

Just a quick update on how the evening went. I think that it went well, but I was talking, mamacita can give her evaluation. I know for sure that I was nervous at first since there were about 32 or so people there with a mix of age ranges. There were 2 sisters (nuns) there and our associate pastor was there. It was a wide range of people from those that were married 50+ years to (what looked like) high school aged kids.

I mainly stuck with my original layout talking about Humanae Vitae and contrasted NFP to contraception, talked about the true meaning of the marital embrace and shared a personal testimony. All in all, I talked anywhere from 30-40 mins. I was pressed for time and I said “um” a lot as I had a hard time losing my place on my notes.

Oh well 🤷 if one person was touched by it, then it was worth it. One of the sisters told me “I could feel the Spirit moving through you up there.” Lots of people said it was great, but would they tell me if it was bad? Our associate pastor said that it is a message that needs to get out there and praised me for talking about it saying “you had my attention the whole time.”

With more practice, it could have been a lot better, but all in all, I feel that it was good. I hope that (again) atleast one person was touched in some way.

BTW, thanks for the suggestions and for the prayers. I really did feel them last night as I was calm when I was talking, just kept losing my place.
