Catholic, enjoy photography, swing dancing, juggling, and traveling. Just a place to share a few of my thoughts on God and the beauty of him in the world around me.

 

Steve Ray’s Conversion Story

fathershane:

I saw nothing in the Catholic Church to make me want to be Catholic! And the Catholics I knew were the biggest argument against the Catholic Church. Neither my wife nor I have ever set foot in a Catholic Church out of principle. We had never met a Catholic priest or religious and most unfortunately, we had never met a Catholic who could explain or defend their faith.

And yet today he’s one of the most fervent and learned Catholics you’ll ever meet. Read the rest… it’s fascinating.

Happy Ash Wednesday! This will be my first time as a Catholic celebrating Lent, and I’m so blessed to have this opportunity! Praying for all those participating in this season as well!

“Stop shoving your beliefs down peoples’ throats.”

My profile picture on Facebook is a picture of me from March for Life in D.C.  A few people commented on it trying to argue with me why abortion is perfectly okay. God gave me the patience to deal with it so calmly and respectfully and still stand up for what’s right, and I’m so thankful!  Just a little confused as to how a picture comes off as me forcing my beliefs on anyone…Hope all of you are fantastic, as always! God Bless!

I never have any difficulty believing in miracles, since I experienced the miracle of a change in my own heart.
