Valli

I have been married for thirty years, and we have five grown children - four young women and one young gentleman. We also have two granddaughters ages two and four. I am an ex-nun and could probably fill your ears with many stories that I still remember. Right now, I am interested in helping people, but as we know, that all takes money. I am trying to narrow myself to two programs and concentrate on those. I am looking to the Holy Spirit for guidance in this area.

I am now in my 3rd week of radiation therapy. I am due to have my final treatment on August 20th. I cannot have chemotherapy because it would probably kill me quicker than the radiation.

There’s a NEW Breeze a Blowin’!

I am so sorry for neglecting my blog for so long. I have been in and out of hospitals since after Thanksgiving. I was just released from the hospital this past Wednesday. Since then, the Holy Spirit has inspired me to do something FRESH and NEW. You will hear more about it as soon as … Read more

Super Storm Sandy

Let us all pray for those who are and will be in the wake of this huge storm! I remember walking along the boardwalk from Bradley Beach to Asbury Park as a girl because my grandmother ran a boarding house at Bradley Beach. One of my friends who lives in New Jersey showed a picture … Read more

I shall be FIRST in your LIVES!

by

Too often we let ourselves be caught up in material things and not the things that will last. Do you often think that you want bigger, newer or greater things? If it were not for God’s goodness toward you, then you would have nothing. We must acknowledge that everything comes from the Lord. It is … Read more

Patience is a VIRTUE!

by

There will be many times in the course of our lives when our patience will be tested. Will we simply give in to our passions or will we try to imitate Jesus? At times, it may be quite difficult to do the right thing. Jesus, although He is the second Person of The Blessed Trinity … Read more
