We Encourage

The night before Easter was the Easter Vigil.....also my baptism, communion and confirmation! It was awesome. I was bummed K wasn't back from deployment for it but I was excited to do it with all my classmates. I really wish I could go back and do it again. Here is some pictures from the night.

I love looking back at these pictures. My eyes got a little watery thinking about this night and how awesome it was. 

And I still say if I could go back and do it again, I totally would. 

I am linking up with Jami over at Call Me Blessed for her series We Encourage. A series linking up posts about how you can or will encourage someone 

I am super excited for the new RCIA class to start at church. I'm hoping that I will be able to sponsor someone. But if not, I fully intend on helping out in the class as much as I can. 

I learned so much last year, but I know it is only a tiny smidgen of what there is to know. Before last September, I didn't know much about the Catholic church, so everything I learned was new. 

I'm excited to see and encourage the new RCIA students in their journey.
