Celestial Memories
In my water aerobics class this morning, we talked about our earliest memory of celestial events. I remember when the first astronauts landed on the moon. That night, I looked up at the moon and thought, “There are people there!” It was an awesome realization. I told my parents about the conversation and my mom […]
Ordinary Miracles
My mom and I were looking for a nice movie to watch tonight and came across “Charlotte’s Web”. I loved the book as a child and read it over and over again, so we watched it. The movie was cute with the talking animals and kept close to the story I remembered when I was […]
Face to Face
My mom made it back to exercise class after 4 weeks recovering from painful sciatica and bursitis. When we arrived, there were some noticeable changes. One of the college students is pregnant and due to give birth in about 2 weeks. I think her baby doubled in size while we were away as her tiny […]
Blessings Reminder
At church today there was a visiting priest from a mission called Cross Catholic Outreach. He talked about the plight of many different people in many different parts of the world and how the ministry helps them. His plea for support went right along with the Gospel of the day, which was the story of the […]
Miraculous Staircase
When my cousins left here, they were headed to Santa Fe and planned on stopping by the Loretto Chapel. The chapel was once a Catholic Church and now is a museum. It holds the “Miraculous Staircase”, named as such due to the amazing circular structure that still baffles experts. The builder is also unknown. It […]
Blessings Shared
A few weeks ago, I learned that a friend’s mother was diagnosed with cancer again. Unfortunately, the illness took over. My friend was able to bring her mom to her home and she is receiving hospice care. My friend has been writing daily about the small blessings the family is experiencing during this difficult time. […]
Ring in the Trash
Today a friend told me about a “God Sighting” she had. On Sunday, she was getting ready for church and took off her ring to put on lotion. The ring is made from a diamond that belonged to her grandmother. At church, she realized she didn’t have the ring on and made a mental note […]
Miraculous Vision
Since my mom had her first cataract surgery last week, the results have been questionable. Between all the eye drops, she has been trying to see assorted things at different distances. While there has seemed to be some improvement in clarity, it has still been blurry. Tonight after I finished putting in the drops, she […]
Miracle Story
Due to the impending snow storm, my parents and I went to church yesterday and I was so glad we did. I woke up to blowing snow and covered streets. The priest at church was a visiting missionary and preparing to give a retreat to the parish. He told a story about a man he […]
St. Anthony Comes Through Again
A week ago Sunday, we went to church, then out to lunch as usual. Later that day, my mom realized she was missing an earring. We looked all over the house and the car to no avail. We said a prayer to St. Anthony and called the restaurant and the church. Neither had the earring, […]
