Baptism, Confirmation, Eucharist — the three Sacraments of Initation that are celebrated by new Catholics at the Easter Vigil Mass.

Attend one this year. It is heart-warming and beautiful.

It is at this time of year that I truly enjoy being a Catholic. The smells and bells do it for me everytime. I love the feeling of absolute worship that comes from me feeling unworthy to be there.

It gives me even greater pause as to the miracle of the Eucharist and Jesus’ perfect gift of himself. Shock and Awe!

I will be confirmed this Easter vigil. I am so happy to be able to take communion with others and practice as a Catholic. I am in a profession of faith class right now and it has be wonderful. I walked up a "mountain" here and came down a "hill" doing the stations of the cross at a local convent in town here. Very inspiring and contemplative at the same time. Someone left a tube of neosporin at the top (for blisters?)

I go to the Cenacle Chapel every week and last time I went I was reading a brochure on praying there and it called Christ "O wealth of the poor" and it really stuck with me. No matter what we lose or have desire for He is all we need, right?
