LETTER FROM THE MISSION DIRECTOR
Praise the Lord! It looks like you are interested in learning more about Love Begins Here, and you have come to the right place. Stick around for a while to learn more from this website and view the calendar for LBH2019. I also warmly invite you to make use of the links above to check out LBH in action via your favorite forms of social communications - Facebook and Instagram. As updates come and there is news to be shared, those sources will help keep you in the loop.
Even though it seems like next summer will be here before we all know it, let's take a look back at some of the highlights from the past couple of summers to see where we have come as the LBH family.
Love Begins Here launched on June 21, 2009. That summer, we had 56 missionaries take to the streets of the Madison Diocese.After seven years of growth and guidance from the Holy Spirit, over 820 missionaries served on LBH trips in 2018.To this date, Love Begins Here has given over 96,500 hours of service to those in need - materially and spiritually - in the Madison Diocese.While those statistics are incredible and the Lord has blessed us abundantly, it is even more exciting to recall the changes we have seen in the hearts of the young people who have joined us.“I don't think I had ever seen how beautiful the Catholic Church could be. I never thought I could fall more in love iwth my faith, but this trip surpassed all my expectations.” - Corinne, First Year Lead Missionary
“To me, LBH means giving of ourselves to Christ and others, thus bringing glory to Him, who loved us first. We learn how to better love others and to expand our heart’s capacity to love. ‘We are the ones who enjoy life most’ because we live our lives to the fullest, the way we are meant to live.” - Ryan, First Year Missionary
Indeed, God is good to us. Please be in touch if you have questions or need help in any way.In Christ,Lindsay FinnLBH Mission Director -
