A woman's path to sustained recovery

Though the process of recovery is never easy, some women seem to move through the journey with less pain than others. Why? What makes the difference? Here we will talk about how that happens for each of us. We will talk about how women heal in mutually empowering realtionships with themselves, with others and with God.

Christmas Decorations

The media is reporting that some people and businesses are taking down their Christmas decorations in Newtown. The town is in such pain bright lights and celebration do not seem appropriate. However I read an unrelated story yesterday about a family who buried their very young father on December 20 a few years ago. The mother was encouraged to not "bother" with Christmas. Her response was, "We will celebrate it! It celebrates God becoming human....I need to celebrate that reality. It gives me hope that my John shares God's joy forever."

Let us pray the parents and families of those precious children have a moment, a glimmer that the children are sharing God's joy forever.

Blessings-Penny
