The Pioneers with the youngest member of the group – six week-old Alaina Therese
The pioneers have just begun their study of Chapter Five, Wisdom for the Abundant Life, and decided to apply these teachings in a way that is particularly relevant to young women – the way the media portrays us.

Thirty potential facilitators and teachers for the Young Women of Grace program attended a hands-on training session on May 14 at the Sisters of St. Joseph convent in Watertown, New York.
This young Woman of Grace isn’t shy about sharing her enthusiasm for the new Young Women of Grace program. She is bubbling over with excitement about the course and what a difference it is making in her life.

I had the pleasure of beholding some of Pennsylvania’s most spectacular views of the plush hills surrounding the city of Wilkes Barre during a recent visit to Gate of Heaven Parish in nearby Dallas. It was here that I was able to introduce dozens of women – both young and not so young – to the wonders of authentic femininity.
Girls working on Saint Foldable activity
Spiritual motherhood was the main topic of this week’s meeting of Young Women of Grace. The girls learned all about their very special call to spiritually mother this hurting world – and how to best accomplish that colossal task in this our day and time.

The discussion that took place during our last Young Women of Grace meeting confirmed the reason why we feel so passionately about this study – our girls are under-fire daily in our rapidly unraveling culture and are in desperate need of encouragement, counsel, and support!
On February 6, Mothers and daughters from the suburban Philadelphia area enjoyed an afternoon filled with tea, sweets, and lots of discovery about the glories of womanhood, including a peak at our brand new Young Women of Grace study.
