My Inspirational Person By Joe Clark

My Dad is an inspirational person to my faith because he motivates me to go to mass every Sunday. He also encourages me to pray every night so my relationship with God will grow. He also helps the church by donating money to the church every Sunday. The reason he inspires me is I want to do all of this when I grow up with my own family, but I'll start with some of the things today.

My whole family is Christian and loves our religion, but my Dad loves it the most. He also does all of the rituals of Christians like not eating meat on Fridays during Lent or lighting the candles during Christmas. He also likes to set up the Nativity set at Christmas.

My Dad is a very caring person to others by helping those in need. He helps those who are hurt or needing money. One day a guy lost his wallet and my Dad found it. We looked forever to find his house, then finally we found it. He was so thankful for finding his wallet he offered my Dad fifty dollars. My Dad said, “No, you can keep it.” Everyone was happy now. My Dad was happy the guy had his wallet, the man for getting it back and me for helping.

Another fact about my Dad is he never misses mass. I can't remember a time my Dad missed a mass, especially a holiday when we all would like to sleep late. We usually all go to the 8:30 am one. He also volunteers at church by bringing up the gifts, hanging signs, and doing charity work.

All in all he is a very nice Dad and I love him the way he is and that is it.
