I am the Mother of two daughters Yesenia and Amanda and a handsome grandson Aidan. I have been a Catechist for 45 years and involved in numerous ministries such, Lector, Extraordinary Minister of the Eucharist, ACTS, Catholic Daughters and Schoenstatt Pilgrim Mother Rosary Campaign. One of my favorite past times is spending time with my grandson and I also enjoy my “me time”, sitting outside on a cool breezy morning enjoying my coffee and praying my rosary as I thank the Lord for the beauty of nature as I hear the birds chirping on a beautiful spring morning.
The praying of the rosary is undeniably powerful. We will discuss how to join together to protect our family with our greatest advocate, Mother Mary as we strive to always deepen our love and appreciation for this devotion, a powerful weapon for these times.
I am a life long Member of St. John the Baptist Parish. I am a certified catechist and have taught faith formation for over 25yrs. I also serve as a presenter at parent sessions on the Sacraments. One of my greatest joys is my music ministry and participation with the Sisters of Joy.
