In addition to my first autograph, I started my first board on Pinterest and posted my first item for sale on etsy this week. I’m stumbling into the brave new world.

A lovely woman at the St. Matthew book fair asked me to sign one of my prints. (Forgive me if you see multiple postings, but it really tickled me.)

… can be compared to a beautiful ray of sunshine on a cloudy day.” St. John Vianney

The Village Dove is graciously letting me share their booth space at the St. Matthew book fair: Jan. 21-22, after mass, 56th and Binford. If you’re in the area, stop by and see some of the wonderful stuff Trudy has for sale. And say hi to me!

Salve Regina from Sister Act

I start every morning with this. So uplifting!

“And he set her down upon the third step of the altar, and the Lord sent grace upon her; and she danced with her feet, and all the house of Israel loved her.” The Gospel of James describes the child Mary in the temple.

…but left it to you to picture her in your heart.”  St. Thomas of Villanova

I had the pleasure of meeting Katie a couple of weekends ago and seeing her stunning “Handmaid” rosaries in person. She is a talented artist using her gifts to praise and serve Our Lady. I encourage you to take a closer look at her work.

John Shaugnessy wrote a beautiful article about my faith journey and the new enterprise that resulted. He represented me well in both fact and spirit. I’m grateful for the message it contains about human and divine love. The article is not yet available on line, but you can access the Criterion at http://www.archindy.org/criterion/#page=topstories
