Nov: Meet St. Francis Mother Cabrini. She was the first U.S. citizen to be canonized as a Saint by the Roman Catholic Church, on July 7, 1946. Her deep trust in the loving care of her God gave her the strength to be a valiant woman doing the work of Christ.

Dec: Review of Matthew Kelly’s book, ‘I Heard God Laugh’.  If you ever wondered how Matthew Kelly has been able to write and speak the way he has over the past three decades, he is about to share his secret with you.
