I serve because working together we build the future of our Catholic community. It strengthens my faith and I reap the benefits of a life well lived through serving others. Simply put - I love my faith, my community and my church.
Liz Quicksell I feel called by Jesus to serve my family, my parish, and my community. By nourishing, by giving of my time or talents, or sometimes just lending an attentive ear. Trying to follow Jesus' many examples of service is the way I want to live.
My faith and relationship with God started to feel compartmentalized to certain places and times. I volunteered to bring my relationship with God to the center of my life again.
