Please pray for Steve, a man in our RCIA who Passamaquoddy Indian and will be (God willing) baptized at the Easter Vigil. He is constantly being attacked and we really believe there is a spiritual battle going on for his soul.

In fact, please remember to keep all the candidates and catechumen in your prayers as we journey towards Easter.

Conversion can be a struggle and I know there are many converts here (myself included)who can relate.

Thank you.

Please know that all I am lifting up all the intentions here!

UPDATE: 12/07
I am very sorry to tell you that we received word today of Steve's death. We do not know the details only that it seems to be sickness related. Our whole RCIA group is very sad over this news. Steve was not baptized but did go through the Rite of Acceptance and certainly had a desire to be baptized. Please remember him in your prayers.

Praying for Steve and all who face challenges to conversion connected to tribal identity.

Praying for Steve and for all catechumens. It is really a spiritual battle and our prayers for conversion are so important for all of these souls.

Oh, no.

I will pray for Steve's soul and for all those who are grieving for him right now. I'm confident that Our Lord will recognize Steve's commitment to baptism.
