Group questions:

1. What is your favorite thing about where you currently live? My favorite thing is the friends that I have made.
2. How did you end up going to the parish you currently attend? It’s the one assigned to the area I live in.
3. We often give things up or take things on for Lent. Throughout your whole life, what was the best thing you ever gave up or took on? Why did it leave such an impact? Giving up soda. Soda can be delightful treat, but I was treating it as something I always needed to have. When you give up something you have almost daily you realize that it’s not necessary to have all the time. I was also looking to improve my run time and athletic ability overall. By giving up one thing I aimed to improve myself in adding another.

Hey, it’s been a while, but we all need some time to think and wonder in silence.

Have you ever felt lost? Do you ever wonder what is going on, or ask, “Why did this happen to me?” I’ve just finished reading through Numbers and Deuteronomy, where the Israelites wandered the desert; by continuing to believe in the Lord, they were led in the right direction. When they turned from God, sought out other gods, or lost faith, they were punished.
