NCYC 2007

I had the privelege of volunteering for the National Catholic Youth Conference in Columbus this last weekend. Oh my gosh!! I tend to be somewhat cynical about life in general, but seeing and meeting these kids that were open about being Catholic Christians was so inspiring. It took me well into my 30's to get the beauty of the Catholic faith, but these kids at the conference were proud of their faith and were kind and considerate young people. I'm not so naive as to think that as some of them get older, they may lose that enthusiasm, but just to see it was an inspiration for me. God works in mysterious ways. He has given me something to think about through this experience. Life is very, very short and I am astounded by these young people that aren't afraid to proclaim their faith.
