Hi Brian,
Great to hear from you and WELCOME TO THE FAMILY!!!
I'm glad you found our web site helpful. I have a strong team behind me
without which I couldn't do this work.
One thing, our AskACatholic team envy about Evangelical
Protestants is their zeal for the Faith and for the Sacred Scriptures.
Scott Hahn, when he joined the Church, said we, [Catholics], are
like Rockefellers in the ghettos who don't know how to write out checks,
so I empathize with your situation.
My suggestions:
I would do several things:
- First read our About Us and Who
answers your questions page,
to get a sense of how we started.
- Check out our Starting
your OWN CPATS page.
- Work with what you have and include a
daily prayer life focused on this
specific issue.
- What do you possibly have?
- Talk to your pastor and share with him your interests.
We all have a calling in the Church. Through
prayer, you WILL
discover yours. If he doesn't seem interested or doesn't
seem to care, find another priest.
Remember, Catholics don't leave Peter because of Judas behavior.
- Talk to the network of good Catholic friends
you have met and share with them your interest in developing
a Catholic Support group in the form of Catholic Scripture Study,
Faith-sharing or just getting together as friends over some food
and drink. Try to set a good day and time aside for all to get
involved on a periodic basis.
No one person knows everything: except the divine person, Jesus.
Having a Catholic support group where you can ask friends
questions, makes you stronger and THEM stronger. When we answer questions correctly, we re-enforce the belief in us.
I'll get some more cards in the mail for you.
Take care,
Mike
PS Sorry, I no NOTHING about fundraising. : )
