As we enter a new era of leadership and an uncertain future, we may be asking ourselves, what can we do to support the cause of peace? Here at Women of Grace, we continue to encourage you to put on the armor of God and pick up your spiritual weapon, the Rosary, every day. Time and again, Our Lady has come to the aid of God’s people. She won’t let us down now. But we must do our part. In The Rosary: Your Weapon for Spiritual Warfare, we are reminded of the story of Amelia Bastos and the women of Brazil who, in the midst of a Communist takeover of their country, gathered massive numbers of ..read more

January 20 “I came that they may have life, and have it abundantly.” -John 10:10 Today’s Reflection: Lack of forgiveness blocks the grace of God in our lives. It brings death–spiritually, emotionally, and often, physically. Examine your life. Where do you need to forgive? Pray for the grace to do so.

What could have been a great movie to educate the public about the afterlife, Pixar and Disney’s new SOUL animated comedy is riddled with Hindu and New Age ideas about life after death and imagery that will both frighten and mislead children. According to the Christian reviewers at Movieguide, Pixar’s new film, which debuted on Christmas and stars Jamie Foxx and Tina Fey, is about an aspiring Jazz musician named Joe who is on the verge of making a breakthrough in his career when he falls through a manhole and dies. Suddenly, Joe finds himself on an escalator to Heaven and tries desperately to ..read more

  January 19 “Be patient, therefore, brethren, until the coming of the Lord. Behold, the farmer waits for the precious fruit of the earth, being patient over it until it receives the early and the late rain. You also be patient. Establish your hearts, for the coming of the Lord is at hand.” -James 5:7-8 Today’s Reflection: To evangelize effectively, we must be patient. When we look around us to our family and friends, do we impose our Faith on them? Or do we, instead, propose it through our testimony and the example of our life? How beautiful it is to patiently s ..read more

It’s not easy to keep the faith when it’s being challenged on every front these days. From COVID restrictions to political sea-changes, outright censorship and the tyrannical “cancel” culture, it’s no wonder so many of us are crying out, “Where are you God?” This morning I flipped open the bible to the story of the valiant Judith, a beautiful and wealthy Israeli widow living in the town of Bethulia. A powerful Assyrian commander named Holofernes, intent on invading and pillaging the town, had already cut off the water supply and the people were slowly dying of thirst. Because the Israelis were ..read more

  January 18 “Since the first century the Church has affirmed the moral evil of every procured abortion. This teaching has not changed and remains unchangeable. Direct abortion, that is to say, abortion willed either as an end or a means, is gravely contrary to the moral law.” -Catechism of the Catholic Church, 2271 Today’s Reflection: Human life is sacred. How do we allow this Church teaching to move us forward with faith and confidence in the public square to proclaim this truth? Excerpt from Experience Grace in Abundance    If you enjoy Daily Gracelines, please prayerfull ..read more

  January 17 “The ultimate solution for restoring and promoting justice at all levels lies in the heart of each man.” -Fr. Francis Fernandez Today’s Reflection: It is in the heart that injustice comes into existence. Examine your own heart in this regard. Seek the sacrament of penance and resolve to practice justice in the areas in which you have been remiss. Excerpt from Experience Grace in Abundance    If you enjoy Daily Gracelines, please prayerfully consider making a donation to support and sustain our apostolate so that we may continue to provide this and all of our res ..read more

  January 16 “Blessed are those that hunger and thirst for justice, for they shall have their fill.” -Matthew 5:6 Today’s Reflection: We must do more than agree with Church teaching on issues. We must form our conscience according to them, and we must let Church teaching move us forward with faith and confidence into the public square to proclaim the truth at every opportunity. How do your actions indicate your beliefs about the sanctity of life? How can you bring greater justice into the contemporary culture? Excerpt from Experience Grace in Abundance    If you enjoy Daily ..read more

We humbly ask you to pray for the mission of Women of Grace as plans come together for upcoming events, programs, studies, and other spiritual formation opportunities.

If you have not yet read the Holy Father’s letter, you can do so here. In it, he highlights the critical role St. Joseph played and still plays, in salvation history. St. Joseph is also highlighted in the book, The Ro ..read more

  January 15 “As long as matters are really hopeful, hope is a mere flattery or platitude; it is only when everything is hopeless that hope begins to be a strength at all. Like all the Christian virtues, it is as unreasonable as it is indispensable.” -G.K. Chesterton Today’s Reflection: There is no hope without uncertainty. Perilous times, difficult circumstances, tenuous situations, and heartrending trials form the crucible in which hope is tested, refined, purified, and proven. Ponder this fact. How does it speak to you in your current circumstances? Excerpt from Exp ..read more
