I wrote a couple of months ago about my (and my husband's) recent reversion to the Catholic Church. You were all so kind in offering support and prayers. I thank you again.

I wanted to update to share that our boys (6 and 7) will be Baptized in October.

And my mother, who had also grown away from the Church, is now practicing again. She shared with me that she went to Reconciliation today and had a wonderful, moving and peaceful experience.

God is good.

______________
Blessings,
Tracey

That is WONDERFUL that your family is embracing the Catholic faith, Tracey!! What a special, special day your boys will experience in October as well! They'll have the added perk of remembering that special event forever.
Wonderful news about your mom too. Sometimes it doesn't take much to inspire someone else to walk a little closer to the Light, because their hearts really want to anyway! All of us, everyone, are being called by Christ to 'come'-some listen, and some are very good at ignoring that voice. Blessed be those who 'hear'.
   Thanks for sharing. : )
