I have begun volunteering in the office at Lamb of God Maternity Home in Escondido, California. After my 2 years with the San Diego Walk for Life, I decided it was time to do some other things in the "Life" category. So, after meeting an employee of the Home, I went, along with a friend, … Continue reading “God makes us what we’re not”
Mercy
I heard this song on my car radio a few days ago, it's called "When We Fall Apart." As someone who recently lost my dad and whose brother passed away a year before that, and then our mom left us in 2017. Well, it's been a tough several years. My sister now mourns the loss … Continue reading Mercy

It’s not even just about the false accusations that will lead to His arrest and all the terrible things that … Continue reading Meditations on the Sorrowful Mysteries
