The Passion of Jesus Christ Bible Study - Part 10 of 11 - Jesus dies on the Cross - Mt 27:45-56

As John Michael and his wife journeyed through their second pregnancy, they learned that their son would be born with Down Syndrome. Instead of running from this challenging circumstance, the Lucido family fully embraced God’s perfect gift to the world by naming their son Judah, which in Hebrew means “Praise be to God.” John Michael is a regional director at FOCUS (Fellowship of Catholic University Students), where he and his wife serve the Lord by accompanying others, including fellow missionaries. Their work as a married couple with three kids serves as a model and a witness for young adults nationwide.This episode of The BeatiDudes is a testament to the power of faith and family and the beauty that comes from our complete surrender to God’s will.
