BE the Prompt to Pray

July 11, 2022 by Monica McConkey Leave a Comment

As a mom of three young adults, my Mom-responsibilities are evolving as they face big decisions.

While it is a blessing when they want to talk about their concerns and choices, it is becoming increasingly clear that I can’t easily jump in and fix everything. I don’t have ready-to-go advice. I’m the kind of person who is more likely to think of the best answer, hours after mulling it over.

May 31, 2022 by Monica McConkey 1 Comment

The monthly devotion of June honors the Sacred Heart of Jesus. Delving into this devotion, we reflect on the profound love Jesus has for each one of us. While the Devotion of the Sacred Heart of Jesus is classic and traditional, the Divine Mercy of Jesus devotion is somewhat new, revealed to St Faustina in 1931. Both devotions however focus on the Love and Mercy of the Sacred Heart of Jesus.

More FAITH at Home

May 22, 2022 by Monica McConkey Leave a Comment

Spring has SPRUNG and we’re already starting to look toward SUMMER!

I don’t know about you, but in the hectic pace of just everyday, Ordinary Time, with kids’ school and extra-curricular, health issues, family celebrations and events, I often feel guilty that my own prayer life is not so focused and our family prayer can meander away…
