Mary, the mother of Jesus, wife of Joseph and inspiration to the early church gives us the clearest and most inspiring model of what a Christian woman can be.

Learning about Mary can inspire you toward a deeper spiritual dimension.

Marian devotion can give aid to the beginner and direction to those who wish to know more.

Lance describes himself as:

“I’m not a great talker. I feel that I am a good listener with some gifts of discernment.”

“I do have much experience with family so I think I could give hope and enlightenment to anyone who would like to share with me, obviously I won’t have all the answers but I can lend a listening ear. My life experiences are quite extensive.”
