info_outlineChange and transition are part of human life as seen in graduations, new jobs, relationships, and situations. Like the Apostles on this feast, we can face our changes by keeping in mind three basic concepts:
- Observation - looking & listening to our new reality
- Reflection - by ourselves, with others & God's guidance
- Application - putting our thoughts into action
