Three Years of One Small Rose
Lessons from the Resurrection and Wounds of Christ
Last Easter season, the title of a magazine article caught my attention.
I kept the magazine and left it on my bookshelf for an entire year; and I did this without ever reading the article!
I don’t usually hold on to things, unless they have significance or purpose…
Saint Spotlight: Joseph
Today, March 19th is the Solemnity of Saint Joseph, Husband of the Blessed Virgin Mary!
Since St. Joseph was the earthly spouse of Mary, the earthly father of Jesus and the head of the Holy Family, he is of great importance.
He’s also important to my family.
Two Years of One Small Rose
Dear Readers,
I created One Small Rose and published my first post on February 16, 2018.
Since the two year anniversary just passed, I’d like to share a few things.
Saint Spotlight: Nicholas of Myra

Inspired by the book, and using information from it, I dedicate this post to Saint Nicholas of Myra.
Waiting…
“All will be right with time and a little patience.” ~ St. Mary MacKillop
I wrote a post about waiting last year. At that time, I was in a personal situation that required patience.

Waiting is a reality each of us can relate to, and there is often a lesson waiting for us…
The Visitation of the Blessed Virgin Mary
Today, May 31st the Church celebrates the Feast of the Visitation of the Blessed Virgin Mary.
The Cross
About a year ago, I wrote a post on the cross. I decided to resurrect the post (with a few edits) since we’re in the season of Lent, journeying toward the cross with Christ.
If you’ve been following my blog from the beginning, you probably read it. However, you may not remember what you read a year ago — I sure don’t!
Even if you do remember, I recommend reading it again. The cross teaches us many lessons, and it’s essential that we continue to learn from it…
My Grandpa: A Devoted Child of God and the Blessed Mother
“All the true children of God, the predestinate, have God for their Father, and Mary for their Mother.” ~ St. Louis de Montfort
