I returned recently from a whirlwind trip to Lafayette, Louisiana. I spoke at a beautiful women’s retreat alongside Johnnette Benkovic. Graces were flowing indeed. It was wonderful meeting all of the lovely “thirsty” women. They were there to nourish their faith and to share with one another. I told them that I firmly believe that when women gather together at times like this–WATCH OUT!–because with God’s grace we have the power to change the world!<\/p>\n

Just prior to that my visits on Women of Grace were aired on EWTN TV. You can see all five of them here<\/a> for a limited time.<\/p>\n

\"12540641_1028367327184238_8267295219891598835_n\"Here is a recent article in a Canadian newspaper<\/a> with an interview of me expressing the importance of a mother’s mission. I will be speaking about a mother’s vocation in Toronto this week end. Please keep me in your prayers.<\/p>\n

A recent article in the National Catholic Register highlighting my Lenten book is here<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Did you know that I make these Novena bracelets <\/a>exclusively for the EWTN Religious Catalogue?<\/p>\n

Have you seen my special bracelets fitting for any woman? They are a prayer aid and help to celebrate human life. Check out the various styles here<\/a>.<\/p>\n

I need to finish a few writing projects and prepare for my trip to Toronto. Please keep me in your prayers and now that you are in my prayers!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
