Hey folks, we are close to Easter! How is everyone’s Lent so far? Maybe take this as a sign to go to confession!?

Praying for you please pray for me! I am studying for a PMP certification so that’s been tough.

Any prayer intentions?

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!

I'm at a career juncture and have decided on a career in anti-money laundering as my new path. I'm also highly interested in additional education to further my career and am eyeing graduate school. Which is best? A law degree or a master's in international relations? Those are where my interests lie. I keep reading that JDs are valued in compliance but am wondering if a different graduate program is better for my goals. I already plan to obtain the CAMS certification. Thank you!

Hi all, wanted to share a couple things that have been real blessings to me and boosters to my faith lately in case they are helpful for anyone else: 1) CBSM - it’s a 4-year course that takes you though the whole Bible. Im in year 2 and love it. 2) Pints with Aquinas podcast. He has both long form/interview podcasts and also very short Bible study podcasts where he analyzes a verse or two and provides Aquinas’ view on it. If you have things that’ve helped your faith lately, I’d love to hear ‘em!
