Reflections of Family and Faith
"The family that prays together stays together." - Venerable Patrick Peyton
While attending a Marian conference in my young twenties, I had a brief encounter with a very holy priest that shaped my vision of what it means, as a woman, to look to Our Blessed Mother as the ideal role model for my life. The priest’s name was Fr. Agnes, and immediately prior to the conference, he had spent the past 10 years of his life in prayerful solitude on an island off the coast of France.

When you are interiorly free you call others to freedom, whether you know it or not. Freedom attracts wherever it appears. A free man or a free woman creates a space where others feel safe and want to dwell. Our world is so full of conditions, demands, requirements, and obligations that we often wonder what is expected of us. But when we meet a truly free person, there are no expectations, only an invitation to reach into ourselves and discover there our own freedom. – Henri Nouwen

Typically in the month of May we like to honor our Mother in heaven, Mary. Therefore, I was hoping to make a commitment to making this month my time to remember saying a daily Rosary.
