Gonna be so sad to leave glamorous Fargo tomorrow

What is the hiring process of persistent systems? I am done with one technical round and got an email with subject line as 'feedback' but in mail it is written that they will get in touch with me. What does that mean? Will there be more technical round or managerial round?

My lent has been one of the worst tbh. I haven’t stuck to what I gave up, which I normally do :/ but I’m doing Bible In a Year with Fr Mike and that has been an amazing experience. Starting surrounding myself with more Catholic friends which has been such a rediscovery. Do need to go to confession soon.
Praying for you all.
I am a lifelong Presbyterian, and my Lenten goal was to become more comfortable with prayer, partly because I decided to do Bible in a Year with Fr. Mike. His words mean so much to me, even as a 42 year old. He makes me feel like it is okay to not have everything figured out. His work with young adults is so evident, and his words ring true to adults and take me back to my youth group days.
So, how is my Lent going? In short, I'm feeling really conflicted. I've been feeling called to get back into church life (after having spent 20+ years as an organist/music director) and I jumped into a leadership role with my Presbyterian church right at the beginning of 2022. Now, in 2023, through my study and prayer, I am finding myself feeling the pull to be closer to Jesus and to the Catholic church. I am thinking that I want to move to the Catholic church, but don't want to abandon my Presbyterian friends. I have been praying a rosary almost every day, spent time in adoration, and am perhaps more excited than I should be about the prospect of going to confession for the first time. I know that my next step is to talk to a priest about all this, but your prayers for me would be much appreciated. And, like Fr. Mike says, know that I am praying for you.
Praise God! I am praying for you!! You are not abandoning your friends in seeking Christ. If you feel that you may be cut out, have no fear. I am sure you would find community.
Thank you for sharing!
Yea, I need to get my butt to confession. Lent has been pretty average. I gave up social media (really just Facebook for me) and news podcasts. Instead, I’ve listened to Pints with Aquinas, the Catholic Answers/Focus podcast and Messy Family Project. That’s has been great - really uplifting and edifying. But I do have the nagging feeling I didn’t go deep enough or grow as much this lent as I should have. So trying to quiet that voice and be content.
Good luck with the PMP!
