Generally, when I participate in the #WorthRevisit Link-Up, I am posting something I wrote before; thus the revisit concept. Then I share it with the Reconciled to You and Theology is a Verb blogs. It’s been a great way for me to “meet” other writers and speakers who enjoy sharing their faith. But today, I have…
Summertime Evangelization!
Yesterday, my third installment of Called to Witness was published in The Catholic Post. This is a continuation of my project to connect parishes with the evangelizaton efforts of the National Council of Catholic Women. This time, I focused on ways to share our faith during the hectic summer season. You can check out the…
Third Sunday is Park Day
My writing has been sporadic here, but I just wanted to share a few simple thoughts and pictures. After all, not everything has to be profound or challenging. In fact, today is a perfect day to reflect on the simple things…beauty, joy. My husband, Bruce, and I decided recently to take advantage of the scenic…

#WorthRevisit: Those Silly Online Quizzes
Time for another Wednesday #WorthRevisiting post. I enjoy linking up at Reconciled to You, and reading what other bloggers have to share. I decided to go way back today.

I am getting very excited. Tomorrow morning I will board a plane for Atlanta where I will attend the annual Heartbeat International Conference!

Professional conferences for any field of expertise are important, but a gathering of…

Thank you, Indiana!
Today, Indiana Governor Mike Pence signed into law a provision making it illegal to abort a child due to fetal anomalies such as Down’s Syndrome (as well as race or sex.) Indiana is only the 2nd state to do so, North Dakota being the other one. I am so excited to see this! And yet…
#WorthRevisit: Arrivederci, Italia!
Time for another #WorthRevisit! Most people are busy posting about Lent, and I do have thoughts in my head about this beautiful Holy Week, but today I am shifting gears. In the fall of 2013, Bruce and I celebrated 20 years of marriage with a trip to Italy. We saved up for a long time,…
