About Me

Hi, I'm Annie! I'm a Catholic wife, writer & producer, and I work from home on a prayer ministry I run with my husband. I also write about, and share, some of the best things I find about living an authentic Catholic life as a woman & wife.

Take A Look Around

“When the angels ascend to God is when they take “When the angels ascend to God is when they take to God our petitions and our prayers. And when they descend... is when they come back from God with all of his answers and graces and benefits for us. And so they are intercessors for us in prayer. That’s important so we should use them and pray to them and ask them for that intercession - that they will obtain from God the things that we need.” (Fr. Barry Braum) 2) 🌹🌹🌹Day 8 of the St. Therese Novena: In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit. Amen. Dearest Saint Therese of Lisieux, you said that you would spend your time in heaven doing good on earth. Your trust in God was complete. Pray that He may increase my trust in His goodness and mercy as I ask for the following petitions… (State your intentions) Pray for me that I, like you, may have great and innocent confidence in the loving promises of our God. Pray that I may live my life in union with God’s plan for me, and one day see the Face of God whom you loved so deeply. Saint Therese, you were faithful to God even unto the moment of your death. Pray for me that I may be faithful to our loving God. May my life bring peace and love to the world through faithful endurance in love for God our savior. Loving God, You loved St. Therese with a powerful love and made her a source of strength to those who had lost faith in You. Help me to pray with confidence for those in my life who do not believe they can be loved. I reflect you to the world, Lord. Help me to reflect you more clearly! I rely on you, Lord. Help me to rely on you more! I accept your will, Lord. Help me to accept your will every day! I try to forgive, Lord. Help me to forgive 70 times 7 times! I am humble, Lord. Give me more humility! I see you, Lord. Help me to see you more! I trust you, Lord. Help me to trust you more! I love you, Lord. Help me to love you more! Glory be to the Father, to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit. As it was in the beginning, is now, and ever shall be, world without end. Amen. In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit. Amen. —- Woodwork from @kozakworkshop
“St. Therese is a doctor of the church. And I’ “St. Therese is a doctor of the church. And I’m going to walk you through her perspective on how to handle weakness, how to handle struggle. She was somebody who knew struggle. There are people who debate whether or not she potentially had mental illness, whether she had a personality disorder. We don’t really know that. But what we know is that life wasn’t easy for her, and that she struggled likely with depression, anxiety, probably potentially an attachment disorder. We see a lot, if you read that and get to know her story. But she’s a doctor of the church. She’s got a lot figured out. She’s a PhD in holiness. And what does she say to us, what’s her primary message to us? It’s summed up as the Little way. One of her favorite scriptures was the instructions that I just read to you earlier about those who are poor in spirit. Those who are poor know their need for God and turn to him. That’s her secret.” (Jake Khym) Here’s Day 7 of her novena with @praymorenovenas — In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit. Amen. Dearest Saint Therese of Lisieux, you said that you would spend your time in heaven doing good on earth. Your trust in God was complete. Pray that He may increase my trust in His goodness and mercy as I ask for the following petitions… (State your intentions) Pray for me that I, like you, may have great and innocent confidence in the loving promises of our God. Pray that I may live my life in union with God’s plan for me, and one day see the Face of God whom you loved so deeply. Saint Therese, you were faithful to God even unto the moment of your death. Pray for me that I may be faithful to our loving God. May my life bring peace and love to the world through faithful endurance in love for God our savior. Loving God, St. Therese offered to You her weakness. Help me to see in my weakness an opportunity to rely completely on you…. (Continued in comments)

I wonder what St. Therese’s family made for brea I wonder what St. Therese’s family made for breakfast on special days — feast days, Sundays. 🌹 Or while in the convent, did St. Therese and the other sisters there have any special traditions? I love to think about little details like this — to humanize the Saints, and remember that many of their days looked like ours. Sure, different times, different places. But some things — maybe some feelings or experiences… maybe there were some similarities. Even in the smallest of ways. Here’s day four of her novena with @praymorenovenas : In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit. Amen. Dearest Saint Therese of Lisieux, you said that you would spend your time in heaven doing good on earth. Your trust in God was complete. Pray that He may increase my trust in His goodness and mercy as I ask for the following petitions… (State your intentions) Pray for me that I, like you, may have great and innocent confidence in the loving promises of our God. Pray that I may live my life in union with God’s plan for me, and one day see the Face of God whom you loved so deeply. Saint Therese, you were faithful to God even unto the moment of your death. Pray for me that I may be faithful to our loving God. May my life bring peace and love to the world through faithful endurance in love for God our savior. Loving God, You taught St. Therese how to find You through the “little way” of humility and simplicity. Grant that I may never miss the grace hidden in humble service to others. I am humble, Lord. Give me more humility! I see you, Lord. Help me to see you more! I trust you, Lord. Help me to trust you more! I love you, Lord. Help me to love you more! Glory be to the Father, to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit. As it was in the beginning, is now, and ever shall be, world without end. Amen. In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit. Amen.
For St. Therese, prayer was a way of walking with For St. Therese, prayer was a way of walking with God. In all things -- including prayer, St. Therese taught simplicity -- small things with great love -- talking to God in direct, personal and heartfelt ways. She prayed from her heart as a child speaks trustingly to a parent they love. Let's ask for her help today -- that we can pray like that, and that we can have better communication in all of our relationships. Day 3 of the St. Therese Novena with @praymorenovenas -- In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit. Amen. Dearest Saint Therese of Lisieux, you said that you would spend your time in heaven doing good on earth. Your trust in God was complete. Pray that He may increase my trust in His goodness and mercy as I ask for the following petitions… (State your intentions) Pray for me that I, like you, may have great and innocent confidence in the loving promises of our God. Pray that I may live my life in union with God’s plan for me, and one day see the Face of God whom you loved so deeply. Saint Therese, you were faithful to God even unto the moment of your death. Pray for me that I may be faithful to our loving God. May my life bring peace and love to the world through faithful endurance in love for God our savior. Loving God, you gave St. Therese the ability to see You in the ordinary routine of each day. Help me to be aware of your presence in the everyday events of my life. I see you, Lord. Help me to see you more! I trust you, Lord. Help me to trust you more! I love you, Lord. Help me to love you more! Glory be to the Father, to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit. As it was in the beginning, is now, and ever shall be, world without end. Amen. In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit. Amen.
