The following report comes to us from Virtual School of Evangelization student Don in Cincinnati, OH:
At the end of our recent St. Vincent de Paul visit I gave out a Sacred Heart holy card, a Catholic Prayer Devotional and a pocket Catholic Catechism. Sometimes I will give out a pocket New Testament if they do not have a Bible. My usual script runs like this: “This is called the Sacred Heart. It is a symbol of God’s love for us. We grow in our relationship through prayer and this is about the Catholic Church.” After I say that, I will allow the Holy Spirit to guide me to say more or just be silent.
This week I started with the Gospel card from SPSE. I only got through the “God loves you” part when she became very emotional. I didn’t get to finish the rest of what I would normally say, but still gave her the other things I usually give out. My plan is to try to give the Gospel to at least one person when I do SVdP visits.
Praised be Jesus Christ!
