Victory of the Martyrs
In January, I picked up my old, dusty, worn-out copy of the book, Victories of the Early Martyrs by St. Alphonsus Liguori and have been so inspired by the faith and zeal of our brothers and sisters who lived in the earliest centuries of the Church.
This Saturday is the Feast of Sts. Perpetua and Felicity, both Roman martyrs. Their story was recorded by Perpetua's own hand in an account known as The Martyrdom of Perpetua and Felicity.
The Passion of Polycarp
"I bless Thee, O God, for having vouchsafed to make me a partaker in the Passion of Jesus Christ Thy Son, by rendering me worthy to offer myself as a sacrifice for Thy honor that I may be enabled to praise Thee in heaven, and to bless Thee for all eternity."
Ten Ideas for Lent
Lent begins tomorrow. Have you considered what your Lent is going to look like? Will you give something up? Will you take something up?
Rest in Peace Christopher Plummer
Last Friday we lost the very talented actor, Christopher Plummer. He rose to fame in a bygone era when men were men and movies that portrayed heroism and virtue were still acceptable. For Catholics, his most notable movies are The Sound of Music and The Scarlet and the Black.
Woman of Grace: St. Josephine Bakhita (1869 – 1947)

Most of us know that today, February 2nd, is the celebration of the Feast of the Presentation of the Lord. But did you know that today is also the Feast of the Purification of the Blessed Virgin Mary, which is known as Candlemas?
Rosary Crusade for Life
Last Friday, January 22nd, marked the 48th anniversary of the Roe v. Wade decision, which made abortion legal in all 50 states.
During today's Women of Grace Rosary Crusade, we will intercede in a special way for life. We will be praying for those who have lost their lives and those who have been traumatized by abortion. Thank you in advance for praying with us.
For such a time as this
As we enter a new era of leadership and an uncertain future, we may be asking ourselves, what can we do to support the cause of peace?
Here at Women of Grace, we continue to encourage you to put on the armor of God and pick up your spiritual weapon, the Rosary, every day. Time and again, Our Lady has come to the aid of God's people. She won't let us down now. But we must do our part.
Leading Like Judith in Dark Times
It’s not easy to keep the faith when it’s being challenged on every front these days. From COVID restrictions to political sea-changes, outright censorship and the tyrannical “cancel” culture, it’s no wonder so many of us are crying out, “Where are you God?”
