Meet our Foundress, Venerable Mother Luisita
Sometimes the brokenness is outside of us. Perhaps it is brokenness in a marriage as in the case of Rita of Cascia, who became a saint; or the brokenness in a government, as in the life of our own Foundress, Mother Luisita, who is now a Venerable of our Church, soon to be a Saint.

Mother Luisita possessed one particular gift that has intrigued me for years – her ability to get beyond the bitter sorrows of this life so she would be able to “see with God’s eyes.”

In Knowing How to Die, You Will Live Life FULLY
“It seems to me, my daughter, that everything passes so quickly that we should be thinking more about how to die than how to live.” (St. Teresa of Ávila)
What an odd quote to start off the new year, right?
Praise God for Fresh Starts
Each person’s life seems to have a unique theme; at least it seems so to me. This year as we enter the new year before us, I find myself thinking about the patterns in my life, an overarching theme running through its ups and downs.
New Year, New Beginning
I love the beginning of a new year, the time when we make a fresh start as we recalibrate and break up the soil of our souls to prepare for new seasons of growth.
