Most often, God calls to us through the
people closest to us, through our families and friends. Most
who have entered the Church have been influenced by a
Catholic spouse, fiancé, or close friend. For many of these
people, a desire to raise their children in the knowledge of
God spurred them to action. What is this if not the action of
the Holy Spirit?
