Happy Feast of the Presentation of the Lord! 🕊️

“When the days were completed for their purification according to the law of Moses, Mary and Joseph took Jesus up to Jerusalem to present him to the Lord, just as it is written in the law of the Lord … When they had fulfilled all the prescriptions of the law of the Lord, they returned to Galilee, to their own town of Nazareth. The child grew and became strong, filled with wisdom; and the favor of God was upon him.” —Luke 2:22–25, 39–40

Last night we had the privilege of attending the Parables Tour, an event by . They invited us with VIP access - and we got to meet !

It was awesome to see so many Catholics come together at this sold out event here in Phoenix, and hear Father Mike's inspiring and passionate message of hope!

The money that is raised from this tour will go to build a new Catholic Newman center at the university of Minnesota Duluth. ✝️
