When Forgiveness Becomes Reconciliation
When Forgiveness Becomes Reconciliation
When I was growing up, the Sacrament of Reconciliation was simply called Confession. Years later I realized something had changed—not only the name, but the Church's emphasis. The word reconciliation suggested something much deeper than simply listing sins and receiving absolution. But I wasn't sure I understood what it really meant.
When God Speaks Into the Silence
When Forgiveness Becomes Reconciliation
For nearly a year, every Holy Hour before the Blessed Sacrament followed a familiar rhythm. I would open my journal, pray, reflect, and write. Page by page, that journal became the birthplace of my book, Holy Grief. It quietly witnessed my questions, my tears, and countless moments of grace.

She caught up with me: A guided Meditation on Grief, Mary, and the God Who Waits
My July contribution to Those Who Mourn Magazine shares a deeply personal guided meditation that became an unexpected source of healing in my own grief journey.
Because of the profound grace I experienced through this prayer, I felt called to share it with others in the hope that it may offer comfort, healing, and a renewed awareness of God's loving presence to those who are grieving.

Background
I was born and raised in the Catholic faith as one of nine children, receiving my primary and secondary education in Catholic school.

I was born and raised in the Catholic faith as one of nine children, receiving my primary and secondary education in Catholic school. Growing up in a large Catholic family instilled in me the values of resilience, compassion, and an awareness of grace, which continue to inform the stories of love, heartache, healing, and the daily striving for holiness that I share. In 1983, my husband and I were married in the Catholic Church. Together, we raised two wonderful sons and walked together through the heartbreaks and joys of marriage, parenthood and grandparenthood, finding comfort in faith and God's grace.
