Welcome to our Lost Sheep Blog. I’m so glad you found us here. I am Fr. Greg, a former lost sheep, who is now the shepherd (pastor) of the flock at Our Lady of the Visitation Parish in Darnestown, MD. This is a site for those who have been away from the Church or our parish, or who just feel lost in the world. It’s good to connect even if it’s just virtually here, and to know you are not alone.
Adoration chapel
The basis for it all that each of us should consider is what Christ says in Mt 26:40, “could you not keep watch with me for one hour?”
Confidence in prayer
Confidence in prayer doesn’t mean cockiness; we don’t expect that God will answer “yes” to all of our prayers like Bruce Almighty.
Richness of Scripture
There is so much that the Lord wants to say to us and have us ponder even in just one Scripture verse or passage in order to know Him better.
"How do I know that God loves me?"
It’s the peace, happiness, and joy that God promised in Christ which is the exact experience that Christ’s closest friends have experienced in their hearts and souls for 2,000 years.
How Do I Pray?
Prayer is conversation with God.
