It has been a blessing to see this community grow and for so many lives to be reached with Christ in one way or another.  We have created a space where people can express their lives and faith as we gather before the blessed sacrament, share in small groups, and participate artistically.

​Along with my Idente Family we were glad last week to celebrate 3 years of these monthly gatherings.  I have met many people here, and because of our great team I feel we have truly created a family space.

Pray with us as we move forward as we are just still getting started.

The Eucharist, which is the summit and source of our Christian faith also calls us to a communal living.  Here are just a few clips from a weekend session with St. Joseph's Syro-Malabar Catholic Church in Tampa about Eucharist and community in the modern world.  The Symbol teaches this in a way that is engaging, for the auditory, visual, and kinesthetic learner.

"I have been crucified with Christ, yet I live no longer I, but Christ lives in me." - Galatians 2:20

This is my only tattoo.  And I know that so many people have all kinds of issues with tattoos as Christian's but when I got it years ago it was simply because I wanted it to be a mark for my decision to walk with God and His church.  I have heard arguments both ways for and against tattoos but personally I am unsure which is the place to stand.

What I know is that for me, I didn't have any major theological training but only one simple thought.... Dedicate myself to Jesus.  And although this has been difficult over the years with persecution from many sides I find myself again with the same dedication.

The cross is painful... The cross is embarrassing... The cross is foolish to seek out and embrace by human standards.  Still I march forward towards daily crucifixion.  Walk with me. Pray with me.  Let us carry our crosses together.
