TEC Weekend

three days, two nights
spent with anxious teenagers and tired adults

I awake at home today feeling refreshed and renewed in my faith.

every tec before this, i was still grasping all the concepts of catholicism, still a candidate
but this time around, im a little more experienced and with every talk i learned something
very valuable about my faith each time.

i gave a talk, and i listened to talks.

patrick showed me that, God will never give you more than you can handle.
allison showed me how amazing the eucharist actually is and how one we all are in the church.
mara and marge showed me to be proud of my faith and thus proud of God.
the candidates showed me how far i've come, showed me how little we all start out, especially in our faith journeys.

This weekend i also learned that our relationship with Christ is not a one-man show, that we have to go half-way and God will meet us for the rest.

I told myself to forgive him, whole heartedly.
that with his wheat leatter and his bravery on saturday night he came half-way, now it's my turn. To meet him in the middle and make this work.

it was all so wonderful, the next not till january....
