I have been blessed to be a lifelong Catholic, but in my early 20s I found myself growing complacent in my faith while I pursued my educational and career goals. I found myself being “successful” in the eyes of the world; I had most of the things I wanted and was on track for achieving all my goals. So why wasn’t I happy? After much soul searching, I realized that I had ignored my most important relationship. I returned to the Sacraments and joined a Rosary prayer group. I had never been interested in the Rosary, but the couple leading the young adult group welcomed me into their home with such love and acceptance that I found myself returning every week. While my grandmother taught me my prayers, this couple taught me how to really pray. I found that in entering into deep meditation of the Rosary, the Gospels really came alive to me and spoke to me in a way I had never experienced. I know that many people are in the same boat I was in – rowing in circles. The current conditions we are experiencing with the coronavirus are unprecedented and even faithful Christians can grow weary and discouraged. This is why I started this blog: to bring you encouragement, to help you deepen your prayer life, and to help you open your heart to the peace, love, and joy that Jesus wants you to have.
