A friend who recently moved and was part of our Evangelization Team Shared the following:
"Hello, I wanted to share something with you that I thought was awesome. My
boss is from India. Although I am not up on their religion, I know he is Hindu.
He loves chocolate and I informed him we need to get it out of the office
because I was giving it up for lent. He asked me to explain. So I told him as a Catholic I participate in Lent by giving something up that is a struggle because
I feel Jesus died for my sins and this is the least I can do to show Him my
appreciation.
I also explained this is a time of growing closer to Him. And that
not all give up something. Some people do other good deeds. So he thought a
moment and said "I can do that! I will give up chocolate with you and I will
volunteer somewhere once a week!". I said that was awesome. he went home Tuesday
and discussed it with his wife and together they are volunteering Wednesday
evenings and he did give up chocolate as well!
I know he believes in God... I just
thought it cool that he and his wife are doing this. Have a wonderful day in the Lord! Love and miss you all."
All it takes is sharing your Love for Jesus in your Daily Life and Activities!
