It’s an uncanny feeling—writing someone else’s conversion story. Usually these types of stories are told first hand in a specific-to-the-teller sort of way because coming to Faith after a lifetime (whether that’s as a child, teen, or adult) is always a unique journey. I can only hope that through the help of the Blessed Mother,… Continue reading On my Father’s Conversion
“So, what IS NFP?” I asked our priest during one (of two) premarital meetings. “Oh, erm, a sort of natural birth control you can use so you don’t have too many kids.” The Monsignor replied.

Dear Winston, Two weeks ago, we celebrated your second birthday! I’m sorry this letter is a little late, but in those two weeks we have moved to our dream home, God-willing, our forever home.
