Sharing Your Faith

Our faith brings us much joy – it’s who we are.  Don’t we want our brothers and sisters in Christ to experience that joy, too?  We are all called to share our faith, our journey, our joy with others.  Some ask, how can I do that?

There are many ways to share your faith.  Ministry allows you to share your gifts and talents with others, while practicing your faith at the same time.  Here at Christ the King, we are extremely blessed with numerous ministries and organizations.  The Food Pantry, Thrift Shop, Knights of Columbus, Catholic Women’s Club, 50+ Club, Youth Ministry, Faith Formation, liturgical ministries (servers, lectors, Eucharistic Ministers, ushers, Music Ministry)…list goes on and on!  I enjoy taking part in many of these ministries while being home from college; it brings me more joy than I could ever describe (as does writing for this blog!).

On Tuesday night, we were blessed to have Fr. Austin Fleming of Holy Family Parish in Concord, MA with us to speak about “Finding and Sharing Jesus Online.”  He is also the author of the popular blog, A Concord Pastor Comments.  It was absolutely incredible to hear a great witness on the New Evangelization.  Fr. Fleming blogs every single day...how incredible!  In addition to sharing his faith through his priestly ministry by celebrating the sacraments, he also takes the time to share his priesthood, his faith, his joy, and his gifts with those online.  Thank you for visiting us at Christ the King, Fr. Austin Fleming!  Check back soon for a full video of his presentation.

So, it’s up to you.  How can you share your faith?  If you already are, how can you share it even more?
