In the mid-90s, New York musician Sean Forrest could be found \u201changing out in pubs, being on stage, [and] getting ready to party,\u201d but he couldn\u2019t find fulfillment.\u00a0 \u201cI just knew that wasn\u2019t what God was calling me to do,\u201d Forrest said.<\/p>\n
He converted to Catholicism and started a nonprofit called Movin\u2019 With the Spirit, which uses retreats and music to minister to teens and their families.\u00a0 In 2009, Forrest expanded his work to include outreach to Haiti\u2019s poor and suffering. Their need was magnified after the devastation caused by the 2010 earthquake.<\/p>\n
\u201cWhen we go, we feed the people,\u201d Forrest told the National Catholic Register<\/em>. \u00a0\u201cBut we also feed them Christ. We catechize and teach them with the truth of our Catholic faith.\u201d<\/p>\n Forrest has found fulfillment and so have his volunteers. \u201cThey come back even more energized and spiritually fulfilled by the faith of the Haitian people.\u201d<\/p>\n For surely I know the plans I have for you, says the Lord, plans\u2026to give you a future with hope.<\/strong><\/p>\n (Jeremiah 29: 11)<\/strong><\/p>\n Help me, Jesus, to discover my true vocation.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<\/body><\/html>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" In the mid-90s, New York musician Sean Forrest could be found \u201changing out in pubs, being on stage, [and] getting ready to party,\u201d but he couldn\u2019t find fulfillment.\u00a0 \u201cI just knew that wasn\u2019t what God was calling me to do,\u201d Forrest said.
