From Jean Heimann of Catholic Fire:
Are you married? Are you Catholic? Do you have a devotion to the saints? Have you and your spouse or a family member experienced hope and healing as a result of prayer to a saint or saint(s)?
This is your chance to evangelize and it makes for a wonderful Lenten project as well.
I am looking for dramatic conversion stories as well as stories of trials and tribulations (for example, financial difficulties, addictions, the birth of a child with a medical problem) overcome through the intercession of a saint or saints and the grace of God to publish in a new book meant to inspire and encourage married couples.
In order to be published:
Your story must name a saint or saints.
It must be at least 1800 words, but not more than 2000 words.
Email your submission to me no later than March 15, 2009.
