Dearest I,J, K and PeL, It is Saturday, on the 7th week of Easter. I started writing you guys this letter during Holy Week, hoping to finish my thoughts by Easter Sunday. Of course, it didn’t happen, and my hope was, that I would wrap up my letter by Pentecost. I have a few more […]
Feast Days and Forgiveness
May 19 is our feast day. Our little town, San Jose, is celebrating (or already did, since they’re ahead by a day) in an exciting way. Our 200+ year old parish church has been conferred as an Archdiocesan Shrine of Saint Joseph. As I was doing my homework (I’ve joined a group of women in […]

To be honest, silencing my heart, settling my thoughts and connecting with Christ has become more challenging over the past […]
