The following report comes to us from team leader Janet with our team in Galveston, Texas:
Recently, I had the pleasure of evangelizing with some new companions. These ladies had been at the Holy Spirit 2025 National Leaders Meeting and Conference during the morning so they were filled with the Holy Spirit and ready to evangelize. There were six of us in total and we were able to speak with and pray with a number of people at the Pasadena Indoor Flea Market. I spoke with a young man who had questions about contraception and he asked me about the Catholic teachings so I shared with him about Natural Family Planning. Then we went on and talked about SSPX as that is where he has been going to Mass because he feels drawn to the Latin Mass. I did explain to him that SSPX is canonically irregular and the society may lead souls into schism depending on individual intent, understanding, and whether they formally reject communion with the pope. I told him that he should reconsider and come back to the Catholic Church under the Chair of Peter/Vatican. I also encouraged him to meet with a Catholic priest.
We also witnessed a young man walk by our table who had a lot of tattoos including two tear drop tattoos close to his eye. He steered away when asked if he would like a rosary and kept walking. However, before leaving a short time later, as he was approaching the exit door, we witnessed him turn around, approach the table and he asked for a rosary. It was very moving and we continue to pray for this young man and others like him. To God be ALL the Glory!
Praised be Jesus Christ!
