As my first post since I have joined CCFM, I must say that I am very excited where God has called me this year. I cannot fully explain how He has led me here without taking up many paragraphs, so in the interest of your time (and the scary chance you will stop reading my incredible words of wisdom), I won’t try today. I am also thrilled to have this opportunity to write about what God has done and continues to do everyday in our ministries and in our lives.

At some level, for us to have formed a non-profit youth formation ministry we have to believe that what we have to offer is good. On top of that, for us to hope that we will be hired to replace existing formation ministries in a parish we also have to believe that the service we offer would benefit a parish. However, no matter how well phrased the previous statements appear, the bottom line is that the people who were providing this service before we were hired hear the following statement: “we are better at forming youth than you are”.
