Jeff Cavins in the House!

Jeff Cavins spoke at my parish on Friday and Saturday. I was a volunteer on the planning committee and it was such a joy to be part of this event. My son even helped. In anyway that they would let him help (he is only 10) he would help!   He told me on Saturday morning, "Mom, I want to go with you early in the morning. I want to help. I can do lots of things. I am a good greeter and I can lift boxes and move tables . . . "  With that kind of zeal, how could I refuse?
And pitch in and help -- he did!

It was an amazing seminar! Friday we heard Jeff's testimonial and conversion story. His journey back home to The Catholic Church was heart wrenching, honest and  . . . . all in all . . . . wonderful. God is soooo good!

Saturday was the seminar on the book of Revelation. (The book of Revelation in a Day!) From 9:00 to 4:00 he guided us through John's book. It was AMAZING the amount of information that was absorbed. My husband became so engrossed and hungry for more understanding that he purchased the full, 10 course, DVD.
That is VERY unlike my husband but I am so beyond ecstatic about the fire that The Holy Spirit put in his soul. That longing for more understanding about the Word of God is always a great thing. We are so grateful to have the guidance of The Magisterium to accompany us on our journey.  The DVD is just perfect because we can pause rewind and re-listen/re-watch as necessary!
