Family Tragedy

A tragedy has struck our family.

I struggle to see God's hand in this situation and there is so much within me that wants to turn away from Him; but my deepest core continues to know there is some plan here. All I see is pain, loneliness, orphaned children; but God sees so much more.

I recall my first level 2 formation leader saying that children of the atrium (who have had all 9 years in the atrium) have a "particular kind of hope." That when bad things happen in life and even when they choose some downright awful things, they have a hope within them that allows them to come back to the Good Shepherd.

Please pray for my family; that the next 18 months will not only go by quickly but may be drastically shortened.

May purgatory be emptied.

Facebook Group for Trained CGS Atrium Catechists

Are you a Catechesis of the Good Shepherd catechist? Looking for camaraderie?

CGS Atrium Catechists Facebook group is for you!

From the group description:

CGS Atrium Catechists FB Group is for all Catechesis of the Good Shepherd catechists at any level of atrium - working in schools, parishes or at home.

This is a safe place to ask questions, share experiences, support one another; share in one another's joys and tough moments as we all seek to let the Holy Spirit be the True Teacher.

This is not the place to learn about CGS. Right now the greater need is to support those who are already on this journey.

For the time being, anyone can add new members. Each new member should be a catechist with formation at any level, is in formation or will soon be in formation.
