Global Prayer Challenge for Moms, July 18-24

global prayer challenge for momsRecently, Delphine Ang, a passionate Catholic mother in the Philippines, reached out to me about joining a global prayer challenge for moms. We had the opportunity to Zoom and chat about our own mothering journeys as well as our prayer lives.  Here we were – two different moms oceans apart with unique mothering challenges; yet, we discovered we had so much in common as far as our struggles and our joys as mothers.

Delphine shared with me her vision to support moms all over the world during this challenging time. She invited me as well as many other speakers and authors to encourage our fellow moms in their vocations. You can register for the event here. 

Here are just a few of the moms who will be sharing their hearts during this soul-nurturing event: Heidi Hess-Saxton, Emily Jaminet, Elizabeth Ficocelli, Mary Lenaburg, Kaitlyn Clare Mason, and many others, including moms from Austria, Uganda, and beyond.

I imagine we all could use a pick-me-up right about now. Mothering is never easy, but it’s become increasingly challenging during these unprecedented times. I hope you will join us for the seven-day challenge to connect with others and to lift our hearts up to prayer.

Speaking of moms and prayer, my monthly Relevant Radio interview included a conversation about praying and motherhood and offered some practical prayer tips for the weary mom. Spoiler alert: Your prayers don’t have to be perfect to count. Jesus doesn’t keep score or grade you on your prayer performance. Here’s the link to listen to the entire interview.

Hi, I’m Kate

I’m a wife, mom of five kids, writer, speaker, storyteller, bibliophile, runner, eating disorder survivor, and perfectionist in recovery. I'm the author of Getting Past Perfect: Finding Joy & Grace in the Messiness of Motherhood  and Weightless: Making Peace With Your Body.

I’ve tried a lot of things in my life – anorexia, bulimia, law school, teaching aerobics, extended breastfeeding, vegetarianism, trying to be perfect and failing miserably at it – and through it all I’ve been writing. And learning to embrace the messiness of life instead of covering it up, making excuses for it, or being ashamed of my brokenness or my home’s sticky counters.

Nowadays I’m striving every single, imperfect day to strike a balance between keeping it real and keeping it joyful.

 

“She could never be a saint, but she thought she could be a martyr if they killed her quick.”

―Flannery O'Connor
