Spring in the Sunshine State

It is well into Spring and allergy season here in FL. I will probably hit the beach with some friends this afternoon after getting some work done. :)

This semester has gone really well. I have just seen some of the students grow in their relationship with Christ by leaps and bounds! One girl who has been getting more involved went to Confession for the first time in a long while, has begun to attend daily Mass, and is making significant progress in avoiding the secular, party life-style she had adopted last semester. I'm so excited for her and praying hard!

We also had our largest event yet this semester. We invited Msgr. Swetland to come and field questions at an, "Ask Anything About the Catholic Faith" open Q&A forum. Over half of the audience were non-FOCUS students (don't usually attend our Bible studies or events). They included an officer from the Muslim Association, a student who wants to be a Protestant minister, and many of our Christian brothers and sisters from other campus ministries.
