few months ago, I discovered that the Internet exists in the U.S. universities (they call college) of Catholic tradition. Generally, students and teachers attended the morning Mass, and this, in the walls of the school. The teachers are all believers and practitioners of their subject and give a Christian perspective. It is not beautiful, right? :)
about a week ago, just in case, I am returned to the website Magdalen College, Catholic University of America's closest Montreal, located in New Hampshire. As you explore a bit more of its different sections, I found it , I had not noticed during my previous visits. The college offers a Catholic summer camp for youth ages 15 to 18 with a duration of two weeks, with courses in theology and philosophy in the morning and social activities and sports in the afternoon. The campers also have the chance to go to sea and travel to Boston to visit historical sites! When I saw that, I immediately was super excited and hopeful, especially since the cost of living is very low: $ 350 U.S. if it falls before April 1 and $ 700 U.S. if s registrant after. I almost thought I could pay my way myself! :)
I told my mother, who was immediately enthusiastic (youppi!: D). The next day I told my father, who himself was a little more resistant to the idea ... You see, my father is father hen! He said that since he did not know where I wanted to sign and he was afraid that the staff Camp is a little too radical Catholic (!), he would need more information before making its decision. I must admit I was frustrated! Finally, well, I wrote to my former religion teacher, Mr. Phaneuf, whether he knew of Magdalen College. He said no.
I gathered all the information I could find on the camp and I expect my father to read it. I really hope he will accept that I register. Share my everyday with people my age who have committed to their religion is a big dream for me, because in Quebec, I feel very alone. What a wonderful opportunity it would be! What a challenge, also, to speak English for two full weeks, I who is not bilingual! :)
However, I must keep in mind that this project does not depend on me. Everything depends on my love, God! Indeed, if He wants me to go to Magdalen College, I'll be extremely happy, but if he refuses me, it will not because he loves me not: instead, it will be because that 'He loves me and He has a better plan for me this summer. I trusted him completely! :)
In closing, I would like to share my happiness now have 6 members subscribing to my blog! Also thank you to readers Anonymous. I love you all. Thank you for reading! Have readers makes blogging (how does one call it, exactly, the action of blogging?) Really enjoyable!
