Pastoral Reflection Paper

“I know in whom I put my trust”

In my Pastoral Integration this First Semester it was happened in the same place where I already assigned last year in the Gkk riverside with a Patron St. Rosario.

When we are arrive in the bridge of the barrio dos because of the hit of the sun sticking in my whole body and then I said to myself, I felt tired and ready to surrender and go back to seminary but because “I know in whom I put my trust.
