Pray for Us Lenten Book Club!

If you’re looking for something low-key with a little bit of a community aspect, I’d love it if you’d join me in reading my newest book this Lent.⁣

Pray for Us tells the stories of 75+ Saints who had real struggles and brokenness and found God in the midst of their ordinary (or shockingly adventurous lives). It’s chock full of Saints you’ve never heard of—but need to. And it deals with issues of abuse and chronic illness and infertility and dysfunctional relationships and all sorts of hard things that are perfect to take to prayer in Lent (or any time). It’s also full of stories of redemption and mercy and joy, to fix your eyes on Easter Sunday during the long, slow trudge to Calvary.⁣

Author: Meg

I'm a Catholic, madly in love with the Lord, His Word, His Bride the Church, and especially His Body, Blood, Soul, and Divinity in the Eucharist. I'm committed to the Church not because I was raised this way but because the Lord has drawn my heart and convicted my reason. After 2 degrees in theology and 5 years in the classroom, I quit my 9-5 to follow Christ more literally. Since May of 2012, I've been a hobo for Christ; I live out of my car and travel the country speaking to youth and adults, giving retreats, blogging, and trying to rock the world for Jesus.
