The Disease is Adolescence: and the symptoms are Violence, Suicide, Drugs, Alcohol, Car Wrecks and Poverty A headline of a recent Rolling Stone article

Reflected in calling the present younger generation......faithless!

“Young people, I see you as the sentinels of the dawn of a new hope...”...Pope John Paul II July 4, 2001

WHY TWO SUCH OPPOSING VIEWS? Society= all that is negative Church= all that brings hope

7 So who are you? Messenger of destruction? Or Sentinel of hope?

8 What makes the difference?

9 The way I see things... The way I envision life and the choices I make that is what makes the difference!

10 What should I do? Do I choose life of death? There is much in the world that is good but there is also much that is evil. It is a MATRIX Goodness brings life! Evil brings death.

What is Life? Ultimately the answer to that question is a FAITHresponse.

FAITH is where is where my heart is. my heart is.

F a i t h a s M a t r I x...FAITH.....FAITH...CHOICE..CHOICE.,,,VERB..,,,VERB GIFT......GIFT...FAITHAS...FAITHAS.
