Her prayers for the world reflect a profound love for all
humanity. Through devotion to the Rosary, I have been drawn
closer to her Son, Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior. This
commitment has brought countless blessings and unexpected
opportunities into my life—doors opened that I never imagined

Mother Mary’s visit to my daughter Paige at St. John
Fisher Church in 2020 was a miraculous event that deeply
transformed our family. Since then, Paige has consistently
encouraged us to pray the Rosary together. Her decision to fast on
Wednesdays and Fridays with her mother has inspired her siblings
to join in as well. Witnessing their daily prayers has been a divine
experience—one that continually renews my faith in God’s promise
and strengthens the calling He has placed on my heart.

and supported me for over three decades. The depth of her love
has overwhelmed me, especially as she has stood by me during
this project that has consumed my life for nearly two decades.

From the moment we met in high school, my love for
Tracy has only grown deeper. Together, we have weathered the
highs and lows, the laughter and tears, emerging stronger in our
faith. Her kindness, compassion, and unwavering support have
guided me through life's challenges. I admire how she effortlessly
balances the many roles within our family. Her dedication,
