Sara: I just want to give a shout out to some super awesome high schoolers. Last Wednesday, as I was getting ready for middle school youth group and the kiddos were showing up, like 5 high school girls come into the room. I was surprised to seem them because, well, this was middle school youth group. But, they informed that they had just come from Mass for the Immaculate Conception and just popped into say "hi". One of them even told me that she found out like 10 minutes before mass that she could go, so she jumped in the car and went.
Most adult Catholics don't even realize that Immaculate Conception is a Holy Day of Obligation and even if they do they don't always make it a priority to make it to church. But, these fabulous ladies went on their own, some without their families or even with younger siblings in tow and made it a priority to give a shout out to Mary on her special day. So impressed, just so impressed. Well done ladies.
