Our second Parish Monthly Gathering of “Sharing Christ”, “Befriending Others: Make Love Your Aim”, focused on how sharing our faith works best when we approach others in a personal and caring way. When we build relationships based on friendship and trust, we provide people with an environment for opening their hearts. And when hearts are open, it is then that the Holy Spirit will provide opportunities for evangelization to prosper. Lord Jesus, please help us to use your example of love and friendship as our model for sharing the “Good News” we’ve learned with others. Amen.
