Name

We have been organizing events for years and years, on a voluntary basis.  Most of the Speakers spoke on the different aspects of Divine Mercy.....this year we became an official entity- fully Catholic, spreading the message of Love and Mercy, and as instructed by the church to go forth with the New Evangelization.  When naming the entity, I racked my brains for the name, and it was the Gospel Reading of today...Both Elizabeth and Zechariah answered when asked, "His name shall be John."  And todays first reading is the direction for which this expo follows. "he says: "It is too light a thing that you should be my servant to raise up the tribes of Jacob and to restore the preserved of Israel; I will give you as a light to the nations, that my salvation may reach to the end of the earth."  So there you have it, that it how God named "John Leaps", because the name was wrought out of the reading of the day-  and what is the first thing we heard John do when his mom was greeting by Mary (both John and Jesus were in there mothers womb)....well, he leapt!!!  He leapt for Joy at the presence of Jesus!  Happy Feast of John the Baptist, everyone!   Like John the Baptist, may you leap with joy at the presence of Jesus!
