Praying for Perfect
Words from my 13-year-old 😍 Seriously, that’s probably the sweetest note I’ve ever received. I teach RCIC at my church and my kids range from elementary to high school. I am so blessed to have my “babies” 😊 they’re so amazing! They are the sweetest and so innocent and pure…truly, they are God’s miracles.
But yes, please pray for me! All I need is my perfect man…a man who will love me unconditionally regardless of my flaws. A man who will keep his word and prove his love consistently. A man who can endure everything to be happy with me. Yea, that’s pretty close to perfect for me 😉 hmmm I wonder where he’s at lol
Holiness
My brother and his wife went to Europe for their honeymoon. They started off in Paris and ended their trip in Rome. On Wednesdays, the Pope comes out to greet the people in St. Peter’s Square….and does an extra meet-and-greet with newlyweds.
Yup, that’s my brother and his wife. Meeting the Pope. That’s just absolutely amazing. My brother and his wife are devout Catholics and they’re just so humble and generous. I truly believe God divinely favored them for being so faithful and allowed them to meet with Pope Francis so he may bless their marriage. God truly is so good.
Miracles and blessings happen every day. Remember to always be grateful.
Mmmmm Donuts
Celebrating our last day of RCIC with donuts! Mmmmm…donuts 😉 yummmmy

But first, let me take a selfie!
I Confess
Bless me, Father…for I have sinned.
But who hasn’t?? We all sin, that’s the truth. As a Catholic, my least favorite sacrament is reconciliation (gasp! What a surprise haha).
Although I do not enjoy Confession, it is a sacrament that I should constantly nurture because…Lord knows, I’m good at sinning! Im just kidding. But I do know that my soul is no joking matter so I shall confess!!!
Love, peace & reconciliation!
Religious
I’m Catholic but quite honestly I’m really not that religious. I can’t say that I go to Mass every single week and sometimes I forget to say my prayers but I believe in Christ, I am a Christian.
I never try to impose my religion on anyone else because, with any religion, I just don’t think anyone should go there. Your religion is your religion. But I expose the views of Catholicism, or at least I try to, through my actions in my everyday life.
I feel as if all religions are equally important. And, truth be told, every single religion calls for every single human being to LOVE ONE ANOTHER.
May God bless us all. Namaste.
Stay Married
During the last Sunday mass of 2013, the priest asked all married couples to stand up and renew their wedding vows. That’s how important the sacrament of marriage is. We need to nurture this type of union. We, as Catholics, have a responsibility to always stand by our married couples and give them the strength to stay united to each other.
Dearest Gandhi
Our tour guide, Grand Travel Planner, took us to Birla Bhavan (also known as Gandhi Smriti) during our Delhi city tour.
By far, this was my favorite museum in India! And, trust me, we went to a lot of museums all over the huge country! Walking along the path where Gandhi took his last steps, was by far one of the most memorable moments of my life. It was like walking amongst the greatest of greatest. You definitely have to visit this place if you’re ever in Delhi…trust.

St Mark – Brooklyn, NY
Visiting my cousin in Brooklyn and had to go to mass so we enjoyed a lovely Saturday night mass at the beautiful St. Mark’s Catholic Church. So blessed…thanks be to God.
Ganges River Ceremony – Varanasi, India
Every night at the Ganges River in India, the local priests perform religious ceremonies for the locals and tourists. The sights, sounds and especially the smell of incense consumes you. You are definitely on a spiritual high after experiencing this….no matter what religion you belong to, you will be inspired.
