Parents are the first educators of their kids!

Dear Tee,
Thanks for your comment. You made me smile this morning, and that’s a pretty big deal.
Peace and blessings!

Being from the NYC area my heart is very hurt and broken from watching all the changes taking places. Trying to keep the Faith while feeling full of despair at times and trying to hold on to traditions that are very dear to me. While not trying to come on so strong about everything and turning people off in the same sense. Cause I realize when one comes across like a radical Catholic you lose more people. Cause you make them feel pressured. So I’m very careful with that.
Love seeing your work. Getting so excited and making me feel so proud to be Catholic. We have to just keep praying cause things are truly changing. And I do believe in miracles.
Thanks you for being you.
Your Sister in Christ, Tee
