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.

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?
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.
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.
Dear Rosary Crusaders welcome to 2021! We humbly ask you to pray for the mission of Women of Grace as plans come together for upcoming events, programs, studies, and other spiritual formation opportunities.
THE PRAYER O JESUS, LIVING IN MARY By St. Louis de Montfort.
O Jesus, living in Mary, Come and live in Thy servants, In the spirit of Thy holiness, In the fullness of Thy might, In the truth of Thy virtues, In the perfection of Thy ways, In the communion of Thy mysteries. Subdue every hostile power In Thy spirit, for the glory of the Father.
Amen.
The season of Advent is upon us. It is the time of year when we prepare for the coming of the Lord, both as the infant Son of God born in a lowly manger, and also as our Triumphant King in His second coming when he will reign for all eternity.
“Do everything in love." - 1 Corinthians 16:14
Can you believe Election Day is less than a week away? We've faithfully prayed with each other throughout this season and have done all we can to get ourselves and our loved ones formed in the mind and heart of the Church. Now we must move forward and perform our civic duty, and vote with a properly formed conscience.
Have you been accused of being a “one issue voter” because you vote in accordance with Catholic Church teaching with regard to protecting and defending life? If so, you’re not alone. In fact, you are in very good company.
Recently on the Women of Grace Live radio program, we received a letter from Angela, who shared her heart-wrenching story with Johnnette. She and her husband had recently experienced racism first hand. Through her pain and fear, Angela was able to pray for her persecutors, but asked Johnnette to intercede that they would understand their role going forward and for justice to prevail in their situation.
