Meredith Farmer Age: 19 Hometown: Fresno, CA Youth Arise Class: 2004 The reason for my conversion is YANA. I now live a holy life and I don't want to sin. My heart desires more of God, and I want everyone to know His love and mercy. |
 |
Peter Fontana Age: 19 Hometown: Houston, TX Youth Arise Class: 2004 I have learned humility in the true sense of the word (and I am still learning), my pride has diminished. I now seek the Lord in the entirety of his will, whereas before I sought my own desires and ideas. |
 |
Molly McAllister Age: 22 Hometown: Nevis, MN Youth Arise Class: 2004 I have a greater love for the Catholic faith and the Sacraments. I have a closer intimacy with God, the Trinity, and Mary. I have, most importantly, become unapologetically CATHOLIC. |
 |
Eric Peters Age: 23 Hometown: Phoenix, AZ Youth Arise Class: 2004 Let's just say that I used to be scared that one day my life would be too busy and God might become routine rather than a priority. After YANA, my faith is solidified; my commitment to the Lord with my life is unshakable. |
