Leap of Faith

 

Why the name?

Leap of Faith was given this name to explain the action of a searching soul.

When we long for God and search for Him, our reasoning can take us just SO far, and our faith has to take a leap to jump to the final conclusion that He is.   Like the Bible says “ I Am who AM”   A leap of faith into the arms of Christ is what is needed for us to believe totally in God.  Take a leap of faith with us and learn about our Catholic faith.  We walk by faith and not by sight.

Mission Statement

This site is committed to proclaim the Roman Catholic Faith for the Glory of God.   In establishing Leap of Faith, we hope to offer an oasis of faith to those who come thirsting for the love of God.

In October 1996, we began Leap of Faith.  We are committed to proclaim the Roman Catholic Faith and are totally faithful to Pope John Paul II.  This webpage is full of information about our Catholic faith and traditions.  Most of the articles are written and produced by us.  There are testimonies of faith to encourage the reader to walk with the Lord.

Believing that prayer leads to God, we try to share with the Internet surfer how we have prayed through the years.  We invite everyone to share their burdens with us in the prayerline.  The prayer requests are prayed for every day.  We hope that as individuals stop by, they may be able to share their burdens with us by requesting prayers in the Prayerline.

A few years ago, we began what was to become the "Saint Thomas Aquinas Pamphlet Ministry."  We have produced several pamphlets which are available at St. Thomas Aquinas, Sugar Land, Texas.   Most of them have been placed in the webpage.  They include for your reading enjoyment:

"The rosary is a set of beads intended to lead us in prayer.
Each bead guides us to reflect upon events and mysteries in the life of Jesus and the Blessed Virgin Mary."

Have you ever been late for church or left early?

"Each time we go through the entire liturgy, it leads us through repentance, instruction, encouragement and communion with Jesus Christ, our Lord who can dispel all darkness, forgive sin, heal and strengthen us to go forth and evangelize."

Need a Miracle?

"Will you ask our Lord to use you as an instrument in bringing about deliverance
through prayer for yourself and your loved ones? Begin today. Pray a rosary novena!"

We began to expand our webpage ministry by including a parallel Spanish page that ultimately, we hope, will include all of the materials present in the English homepage.

We work for the glory of God, proclaiming His Word for all to hear. Blessed be His Name!

 

I will praise you, O Lord my God, with all my heart; I will glorify your name forever.

Ps 86:12

(NIV)

 

I will praise the Lord, at all times.

His praise shall be ever in my mouth.

Let my soul glory in the Lord.

The lowly will hear me and be glad.


God bless you,

Marta and Arlene
