Host: Johnnette Benkovic Williams

It’s a gift

WOMEN OF GRACE host Johnnette Benkovic Williams shares that one of the gifts of the church is the maternity of Our Lady. She is the mother of us all. Saint Josemaría Escrivá explained that we are all pilgrims and missionaries. We are called to a “Grande Munus” – a Holy Duty. We have the honor to display God’s will. This is a gift to us. Johnnette talks about the book Life of Union with Mary by Fr. Emile Neubert.

Debbie called asking for prayer after her sister passed quickly last week. She help with Debbie’s 40 year old autistic daughter. Johnnette explains that suffering is a great prayer in itself which was shred with Jesus on the cross. Caller Marion is raising 4 adopted kids by herself after her husband committed suicide.

Johnnette asked her to take some time for herself. Kathleen on Facebook wrote that her sister is using medical means to get pregnant. Does the Church agree with this? Johnnette explains the Church teachings. She says many people feel that they are entitled to become parents. Life is not a commodity. It is a gift from God. Listen to more on today’s WOMEN OF GRACE.
