Waiting Songs

December 7, 2020 by Anna Ostrom

It’s hard to avoid Christmas music, and we don’t completely shun it, but when we do find albums that stick to an Advent theme, they will get heavy play in our home.

Aspiring to Pray

June 29, 2020 by Anna Ostrom

Discovering that I didn’t have to be a daily communicant, or pray a rosary daily, or spend time in Adoration perfectly was so freeing.  I can practice the presence of God in my daily work even when feeling overwhelmed from the daily demands.

The Heroic Minute

June 16, 2020 by Anna Ostrom

’m not gonna lie, I fail in the heroic minute more than I succeed these days, but after learning about it, I am much more likely to at least start with a morning offering or a “Good Morning Jesus” even when I failed to jump right up.

St. Ephrem, the “Harp of Heaven”

June 9, 2020June 9, 2020 by Anna Ostrom

I had never heard of him, but my husband certainly knew how to generate a new devotee when he informed me that St. Ephrem has been known as the “Harp of Heaven” due to his prolific poetry, much of which were hymns.

Waiting Songs

December 12, 2019 by Anna Ostrom

Sometimes in the rush of the secular Christmas season, we Catholics have to be very intentional in our Advent practices so as not to miss out on the gift that the Church has given us through the liturgical seasons.

When I went through RCIA, the influence of the Saints was still foreign to me. We were told to pick a confirmation saint.

A Hymn and a Prayer

August 28, 2019 by Anna Ostrom

As an adult I’ve realized that one of the greatest gift she gave me was a love of hymns.  Susie taught me that having a song in your heart and head meant always having a prayer on your lips.

Building Bridges

June 4, 2019 by Anna Ostrom

Typically, we always have a plan, but yesterday, we knew we needed time with just the family, a little room to run off some energy, and a lot of vitamin D, so we headed out seeking those things and without a specific goal in mind.
