Women

Todayyyyyyyy was my first day of Logos Youth Work. I prefer to call it Catchesis (teaching the faith). I spent 6 hours with two young girls, explaining and teaching them the sacraments of Baptism, Reconciliation, Confirmation and Confession. It was awesomeeee. I've did Confirmation Catechesis with the kids at my parish back home in London, but this was very last minute, and it was an intense teaching time. The girls were so responsive, asking loads of questions, and genuinely enjoying everything they were learning. I took them across the street to a Catholic Mass, well that was the intention, but the priest was late and instead we had a 'Liturgy of the Word with Communion.' Then we went for lunch, and then I took them down to Auckland Cathedral (gorgeous Church) which gave them a better insight into the symbols and importance of the sacraments. The day just went so well, I'm so chuffed. And like, I felt I was on fire telling them all this awesome stuff about Jesus... I love Catechesis, it's really my call I feel. And some thanks goes to my parish priest back in Kingston, Fr Vincent, who had the first faith and trust in me to do the Catechesis at St Raphael's. So thank's Father (whether you're reading this or not haha). I evennnn through in a bit of Angel talk - they had no idea about Angels, so woo hoo for that!

You can probably tell I'm on a high right now eh? Me happy lady :D

I've also been to a couple of talks by Fr Dominique, he's just amazing! I was at one on Sunday before Mass, and then one last night (Monday). There's one on tonight but I'm still at work writing up a report from the Sacramental program. My boss has let me take the day off tomorrow to go to his final talk on the dimensions of the human person - all very philosophical based. He's a very blessed teacher.

So yeah, I'll finish this report then head home. Today has been an awesome day, thanks be to God!

Speak soon, God Bless, love ye's xx
