JC14 [Shhhhh! Jesus Saves!]
God is good! This year’s Crossing was at the brink of being cancelled as we had only 3 candidates on Friday 10/11/13, a week from the retreat. We rallied and asked everyone to pray hard and evangelize, especially the John 6 kids. By the end of the weekend, we had promising results. By Monday evening, we had a potential of 10 candidates. By Wednesday evening, we had a confirmed 15 candidates. And by Friday, the start of the retreat weekend, we had 18 candidates, which included BLD Rockland!
"Trust in the Lord with all thine heart, and lean not unto thine own understanding. In all thy ways acknowledge Him, and He shall direct thy paths." Proverbs 3:5-6.
John 6 Crossing #14 is very special in that not all the kids are from BLD or even Christians! And we had three Spiritual Directors, Fr. Paul Lehman, Msgr. Paul Schetelick, and Fr. Dave Sison. All we needed was an open heart and a yearning to learn more about the love of our Lord Jesus Christ.
As expected, the kids were apprehensive in the beginning, but by Friday evening, they were all bonding. By Sunday afternoon, the 35 gallon trash cans were filled with tissue paper. A true blessing only from the Lord. This is only the beginning of the long journey for these kids. Please continue to support and pray for these graduates of Crossing #14:
Mark Agapito, Joaquin Antonio Cariaso, Reynaldo Cobarrubias, Hubert Deiparine, Maria Deiparine, Xavier Delfierro, Lance
Dizon, Jillian Francisco, Nicholas Gonzalez, Dominic Guinto, Jewel Lamp, Katrina Manigbas, Anamaria Pais, Paolo Rivera, Francisco Rodriguez, Madeline Tanchingco, Sirr Carlo Timbang, and Tyree Lewis.
Special thanks to all God’s servants who made this spirit filled weekend a success – sponsoring class, John 6 praise, study team, sharers, WCD Ministry, Liturgy, youth auxies, adult auxies, ME36 & 37 immersion, core members, and Spiritual Directors.
