My family and I are getting involved in a GREAT pro life ministry. LIFE Runners is an group of people around the country who run/walk to raise money to save the unborn. Their motto is about redemptive running, so all the aches and pains of training and running the actual marathons is offered up as a prayer to save lives.
I am not currently a runner, but I have been praying that God would send my something outside of my own "wants" for weight loss that would motivate me to get healthy; I should have plenty of suffering to offer up. The website is www.liferunners.org. They have all the information you could want- what their mission is, how to train, etc. The three oldest kids want to train with me. I think our first race will be a 5K in August. And just so you know, I met a woman who ran/walked her first half marathon last Oct.; her six year old participated as did a 71 year old woman- impressive!
If any of you are in the Twin Cities or St. Cloud area, this chapter would love to have you join. Other than the running, we will also do other outreach activities such as praying outside Planned Parenthood locations. Please let me know if you would like to join us and our efforts to save lives.
The Holy Family
Jesus, Mary, and Joseph, pray that we may be a holy family living for the Lord.
We Are His Children
There is no greater gift than the Father's love; have you accepted it?
About Me
- Meredith
- First and foremost, I am a child of God, a daughter of the one true King. I am living out God's will for me as a wife and stay at home mother of 7 beautiful children this side of Heaven and 3 special angels interceeding for and waiting to welcome me home someday. We have chosen to live our lives counter to the ways of the world. We home educate our children including children with special needs, we welcome as many children as the Lord chooses to give us, and our favorite place to be is at home as a famiy. We strive to know, love, and serve the Lord more and more each day. We are proud to be Catholic, and we pray that our faith, hope and love for each other and those around us grows more and more. I hope this blog reflects my love for God, my family, and our life. I also hope that it is a source of inspiration. With God all things are possible.
