Hello subscribers! I hope your Lent is off to a good start. I’m very happy to share that I will be giving 2 Lenten missions in Metairie this March. Dates and times are on the above flyer.
The content will be very similar at both parishes, but it will split over 2 nights at St. Mary Magdalen, whereas it will be over 3 nights at St. Angela (I will present on 1 pillar each night there). If you’re able to attend both nights at St. Mary Magdalen or all 3 nights at St. Angela Merici, I encourage you to do so in order to get the fuller picture, but if you have to miss a night, please come when you are able. It will still be worth it, and you won’t be lost.
God’s been preparing me for this for many years, and I’m so excited to present on the material that has been most helpful to me in the “Lent” I’ve been living in my own life! Lent is my jam. 😉 I’m very passionate about speaking about these 3 pillars, as they have transformed my life and are applicable to everyone’s lives.
These missions are open to the pubic, so please join us as we walk more closely with Jesus this Lent. Hope to see you there, and thank you for your prayers!

Hi Alexa!
I am so blown away by your Lenten “3 Pillars” talk. I have enjoyed listening to you through the past few years. But, this time there is such a full development and maturity in your message. You have gone from a phase of discovery to the role of teacher. You had so many gems of wisdom, I was taking notes!
Have you considered turning the 3 pillars talk into a book? I feel the information you are presenting here is something I think many people would like to revisit. And, the only way to fully do it is in written form. I want to be able to pour over your words and underline the things I want to remember. And, believe me, there is a lot to remember in your 3 pillars talk. I know you have a lot on your plate. But, please consider putting this particular talk into a written form. It’s filled with such valuable information that everyone could use. Thank you for praying for us. I’m praying for you, too. And, I always include your Mom in my prayers as well. She’s an amazing part of your mission. I admire her so much!
Love and God’s blessings on the both of you and have a joyous Easter!

A book is in the works! 🙂 Thank you so much for your kind message and for your interest in a book. I had to get though all the Lenten talks first, and now I can focus more on the book. Stay tuned! All in God’s time.
Thank you for attending the mission. It was wonderful to see you there! God bless.
I intended to attend 1 night . However,after “3” night I wanted to hear more.
God bless you. Thank you for your kind words. I will be giving many more talks on a variety of topics, so I hope that you will be able to attend some of those. Thank you for coming to the mission. It was wonderful to see you in the pews each night! God bless.
