The following report comes to us from team leader Nancy with our team in Gaithersburg, MD:

People just need to be listened to as SPSE encourages us to do. Tom, David and I went out last Saturday and we met so many hungry people one of whom was Christian, who is a Christian. Tom spent much time with him just getting to know him and how he could help. Tom is an occupational therapist so his gift is being with people and really listening. He really encouraged him in the faith as he was struggling with many issues, especially lies about himself. Tom was able to help him to renounce the lies he was believing and proclaim the truth to him. He recommitted his life to the Lord. David was also a real support to him.

As the Church is inviting people into this Eucharistic Revival, there are so many Catholics and former Catholics who do not understand the great miracle that happens at every Mass. It is such a privilege to spread this truth and encourage them to partake of this great gift, especially young adults who are looking for more in their life. This was the case for Sophia who had been away from the church and probably thought it was useless to approach the confessional again and receive the Eucharist. We just need to invite people back to partake of this heavenly food and to know God’s mercy endures forever. Please also pray for Tray and Lisa who are also former Catholics.

Sheila, Bob and I also went out last Thursday and were able to pray with so many people. Please pray for Ashley, Arianna and Susan who were given the good news and information about the different churches in the area. Sheila definitely has a mother’s heart for these people. I am so grateful for these faithful evangelists who give of their time and talents to the Lord. May God continue to bless and protect our little chapter and Our Lady guide it.

Praised be Jesus Christ!
