 Congratulations to Coleen Mercado for winning second place in the national essay contest "Faithful Citizenship." Below is her essay:
It is a great honor to be a Catholic in the United States. We all have a big part to do. With the help of the Holy Spirit, we will teach others about our religion and show them what God and Jesus had taught us. Look at the problems our world is facing, abortion of babies, hunger, global warming, people loosing jobs, marriages between both males or both females, and many more. As faithful citizens of the United States, we will try to do what should be done to solve these problems and try to set things that we have done wrong, right. One thing we could do is to Stop, Think, Pray and Choose. We should stop what we are doing for a while, think about what we are about to do, pray for the Holy Spirit to guide us, and lastly, choose to do the right thing. My school is always practicing these teachings and I thought that sharing it would really help all of us. If we follow these teachings we can probably know the best answer or choice. Even though we are facing these problems, God will continue to guide us and touch our hearts saying, "I am with you my child always, and I will never leave your side."
If all of us can do our part and become faithful citizens, our country would be a better place to live and will truly be like what its name stands for, United.
God bless America!
