Memorial Day Weekend

well, my memorial day weekend was great. But i did go to my nephew and nieces first communion. She was kinda excited and as well as my nephew because my sister was going to throw a huge party for them.  This happened on Saturday, my mom, my other sister, my little niece,and myself went to my older sisters house early to go get the things set up. We were helping well the adults were i and was just taking care of the little ones. Like around 4 we started to head to the church for the big ceremony and i really enjoyed it because the priest was talking about how we should be connected to one another in our community. We should help and talk to one another to show our love to god and teach others that doing good things is a way that we can find our faith with god. The ceremony was really inspiring and it really made me think even more about what i should do to help the community. Well, after that we just went back to the house and started to party it was really great and fun. On Sunday i went to church i am part of the missionary group of the "Choro" at the church St.Martha I play guitar and also help with the singing.That Sunday of mass the priest was talking about getting united as one and how we can find our way to god. I really enjoy going to church not only to play the instrument to make music for everyone but to listen to the word of god. I feel that if i am there to listen to what is trying to tell us i get more connected to him not just physically as if im just there listening and sitting down quietly but also opening myself to let god in. As soon as the mass finished it was also father Augustin's Birthday and we went to go celebrate it for him he was happy that we were there to spend time with him and make him as if he was home. On Monday it was Memorial Day i didn't really do much But my family and i went to go eat in the morning and we were just talking about hos are day went. When we had finished we went home and we were doing some arron's and we came up to this lady and asked her if she needed help she looked as if she was in her 60's or something and she said " Id be gladly appreciated for your integrity to help me" That made me feel something i never felt before. I felt honored as if i just received an award. as soon as i took her things to her car she told me "good things will come if you have your mind straight and ready to go" I told her that there is no need for anything in return the only thing i got back was your thank-you. As the lady was leaving my mom extended her arms and told me that she was proud of me and that having a pure heart will make the right decision and will make you happy.
