CATHOLIC LAY EVANGELIST My desire in life is to Love and Serve the one and only God, The God of Abraham, the King of Kings, the Lord of Lords, The Holy Trinity, The Father, Son and Holy Spirit. He has made my life worth living. He has never stopped giving to me. From my greatest hours and times of great accomplishments from my highest mountains to the lowest times in my life when I found myself in the deepest valleys searching for answers, God has always been there to carry me through. What then can I do for my God? I have this great desire to share the Good News as God has shared it with me. Not through an education provided through the theological teachings of the Roman Catholic Church, but rather as I see it through my Faith, Trust and Belief in God. What I have to share is what God has revealed to me. The things that God has taught me in this lifelong faith walk with Him. I don't consider myself a teacher. I see myself as one who shares. I share the experiences and miracles that God has shared with me. Real faith walks and ideas that could never come from my mind but rather things that only the Holy Spirit could reveal to me. God is all-powerful! God can do anything! God has no limits! God is beyond Awesome!However, God to share his greatness with others must use his people. The Faithful can and will reveal the Greatness of God to the world. God has instructed each of us to go out into the world and spread the Good News. He meant for all the faithful to be his disciples. Do you hear his call? I do!My main desire in life after 50 is to give the rest of my life to God, to let the rest of the world know that there is Hope, there is Love and there is Faith and a better day is coming. God has given me a bright candle for the world to see. So far many individuals have seen that candle but as the hour draws near that candle must be used to give light to the world. I have given myself to letting my light shine and spreading the Good News that Jesus Christ is Lord and he is as much alive today as he was 2000 years ago. Am I Roman Catholic and do I believe in all the teachings of the Roman Catholic Church? I do believe that the Pope in the Vicar of Christ and successor to Peter, the Apostle with whom God built his church. And I do believe the our Blessed Mary ever Virgin as the Mother of God and that she is a very important figure in the life of Jesus Christ, the Church and in the family of God. YOU BET I DO BELIEVE ALL THESE THINGS AND MORE! And that is exactly what I share with others. I am an on fire Roman Catholic that believes and shares the Greatness of God in this world. Praise God... Glory to God....One God forever and ever AMEN......

DESIRES FOR FUTURE WORK THE FOLLOWING ARE FEW EXPERIENCES: At age 11 had a tumor in my larynx that disappeared with faith through a miracle. All through my youth I had an undying love and attraction to God. I always had faith that God was in control both in good and bad situations. Praise God for everything. While in the navy suffering from the dread disease of alcoholism God continued to love and protect me. God healed me one day while I was ministering the Holy Eucharist. Active in the Charismatic renewal in Emmanuel Prayer Community in Orlando, Florida in the early 70's witnessing countless miracles both personally and with many others. Being cured from cancer that showed up after a radical mastectomy was performed. Leaving Orlando and my faith community because of my faith with even more miracles that made that move possible. Building a business in Missouri coming close to bankruptcy and disaster a few occasions, holding my faith in God that he would guide me into more fruitful waters of success and the miracles continued. Pattie (my first wife for near 30 years, now in Heaven) and I gave Marriage Encounter weekends as a team couple between 1975 and 1980. We worked a little with (TEC) Teens Encounter Christ on a volunteer couple later. I Ran for U.S. Congress in 1980 to make a change Congressional District from and abortion supportive Congressman to a Pro-Life Congressman. My first run with allot of effort and God's help brought me 43.5% of the vote in the primary against a very popular 12 year incumbent. I ran as a conservative democrat and I gave up my political career by throwing my support to the conservative Republican Pro- Life Candidate who then served our district holding those values till he died about a year after Pattie. I lived a beautiful love story with my first wife Pattie of 30 years bringing her from depression with faith and love. Then fighting cancer with faith for the last 10 years of that relationship with what else, faith and miracles that even doctors couldn't explain. One very significant miracle a brain tumor that was already documented on an X-ray, the image vanished while in the doctors file cabinet While Patties greatest downfall in life was her struggle with forgiveness and love of those who hurt her, she in the end received her healing, living our lives together in her last days we shared a healing of memories that would insure her salvation as she gave up all of her anger and un-forgiveness toward others. She gave it to God and was washed like a new born baby.With the help of God Pattie was delivered, purified, cleaned of anger and all the un-forgiveness she had held in for so many years. Then my son and I left the critical care unit where she left us in her resurrection. We went to the chapel to say a prayer of Thanksgiving before our Blessed Mother, then bowed before the Holy Eucharist in the Tabernacle. We gave praise to the Risen Christ for taking Pattie home safely.At the finish of the prayer I opened my eyes to discover the white Sacred Host at my feet on the marble stair in front of the Tabernacle. This was no accident, this I truly believe was God telling me that Pattie had arrived home safely and that she was receiving her wedding supper, her first Communion with Christ in her Resurrection, the Bridegroom had wed her. How sweet the knowledge was that Pattie was home safely. The miracle of raising a good boy filled with faith now thirty-one and giving him a baby sister three years old when God led me to Joanne through the Internet. Yes miracles even happen on the Internet! Joanne a new life, my new bride filled with a love for God and a desire to grow with God in faith, our faith and desire for growth in faith were one of the major things that attracted us to each other. Joanne, truly a woman embracing faith and in just a couple of short years God has shown her a great portion of love, miracles and healing. Where are we as a couple at this time? We are still growing together, walking in faith and trusting that God will provide all our Faith, Health and Monetary needs. Joanne is a great lady. God truly put us together. Our story will continue to be a witness where God leads us.
God Bless and Keep you; |
