If they are enlisting a mind like hers…we are all good.

Wife, mother, blogger, Catholic ministry. I love to garden even when it goes wrong. Same with writing (and we know it can go wrong.) Believing that God is present in all of it.

  1. Very worthwhile conversation. Thanks for sharing the link. I think that the institutional RCC is at a challenging time in history but I believe that the people who are really the church know that we need to serve others in order to follow the teachings of Jesus.
