This time, the team met a lot of Catholics, at various levels of the practice of the faith. Some of them were very active in the Church, others not at all, and others, somewhere in between. For example, a Catholic woman accepted two rosaries from Hope and Steven for each of her daughters. She was delighted to see children evangelizing in public, and promised to bring her daughters to join them the following week. They also encountered two Catholic religious education teachers, a Catholic director of parish men’s program, a Catholic who hadn’t been to confession in a long time, a disappointed ex-Catholic (who, interestingly, accepted that the Catholic Church was founded by Christ and that all others were man-made), and a Catholic father and son who hadn’t been attending mass. They spoke to each of these people and more – sharing resources, prayer, and themselves. After evangelizing, the team went to 5:30pm Mass at St. Kateri Tekakwitha parish.
