Peace is a Prayer Away
If you’re feeling stressed or worried, I have a solution that isn’t very difficult and will bring you peace. One thing I know that I can do for those I love in any circumstance is to pray for them. Whether we pray in our own words, the prayer Jesus taught us (The Our Father), by […]
Fish Story
The rosary is my go-to devotion. I pray it when I’m driving, stressed, working-out, cleaning house, and at the end of the day. I’m in a peaceful place while meditating on the Mysteries and praying the repetitive, rhythmic prayer. I have many rosaries but two new ones are particularly interesting. My friend, Lori, sent me […]
The October Rosary
Would you like to have 15 to 20 minutes of peace, lower your blood pressure, escape from the stresses of the day, and grow closer to Jesus? Pray the rosary and you can realize all of that and more.

“Each year his parents went to Jerusalem for the feast of Passover, and when he was twelve years old, they went up according to festival custom. After they had completed its days, as they were returning, the boy Jesus remained behind in Jerusalem, but his parents did not know it. Thinking that he was in […]

Pregnant herself, and traveling on foot or by donkey, she rushed to her beloved cousin. Mary arrived at the house of Zechariah, and at […]
When God Asks, How Do You Answer?
It’s not unusual for people to claim to see angels. But imagine that not only did an angel appear to you, but that angel told you not to be afraid. You were a favorite of God, and because of this, you were going to conceive a child before being married—in a time when such a […]
Pondering the Spirit
One of my favorite Mysteries of the Rosary is the Descent of the Holy Spirit. Fascinated with the event, I imagine being in the upper room with the apostles, Mary, and the other women to celebrate the feast of Pentecost. I wonder if I would have been frightened by the wind-like entrance of the Holy Spirit or […]

No Time to Pray is No Excuse
No time for the rosary? Then pray as much as you can. We make time for what is important, and nothing else is more important than spending time with Jesus and Mary. Our eternal lives depend on it. We all have a long to-do list, but praying the rosary can take as little or as much […]
