Series on “Mary and the Interior Life” by Fr. Jeremiah Shryock (Part 1)
How important is Mary, Our Lady, in your spiritual life? Our Lady is a real woman and mother to all of us, and Mary’s intercession is more real than we realize. The gift of Our Lady is that she looks upon us and knows our hearts and her gaze can be the first safe and secure place in a world filled with insecurity. At this same moment, Mary wants us to look upon her, and in this exchange, we find safety and security in our lives through a contemplative experience with her.
In this episode, as we start our mini-series on Fr. Jeremiah’s book, we will talk about Mary—a real mom, an invitation to gain a different understanding of Mary and learn about the importance of viewing the world through her eyes.

Learning To Be Loved
There is the undeniable temptation to achieve and perform in order prove that we are good enough. But, it shouldn’t be all about that. We are gifts to the Lord not because of our perfection but only because of who we are. We can get caught up…

Little Like Mary (Advent 2023)
How often do you say “yes” without understanding or knowing the outcome? Sometimes, we have to see and understand the plan before we say “yes,” but that’s not our Lady’s experience. She didn’t understand, but she knew what God had proposed to him, and despite that, she said “yes.” She trusts; she surrenders in this whole experience of her life without…
