Although I have certainly been praying, drinking wine and eating chocolate for more than a year – it was about one year ago that this website launched and my blogging adventure began!

What a truly awesome adventure it has been!  Writing has brought me so many amazing blessings – so I want to take this moment to THANK YOU!

Thank you for reading what I write!  Thank you for sending me prayer intentions so that I was motivated to visit and pray at so many places this summer.  Thank you for signing up to receive articles in your email; for liking and following Prayer, Wine, Chocolate on social media and watching my Facebook Live videos!

Thank you if you ever bought anything through an affiliate link!

Thank you for commenting under the articles and often saying some very kind, encouraging and wise words!

Thank you for becoming new friends and amazing role models!

If you are new here – welcome!

Whether your a new reader or an “old’ one -please tell me about yourself and if you have any prayer requests, I’ll pray for them!  What’s your favorite wine?  What’s your go to chocolate?  I’d love to know!

What’s next?

1. A Retreat!  Would you like to see the Saint Katharine Drexel Shrine, pray together, and have lunch?  Email me for details (prayerwinechocolate@gmail.com)

2. Prayer Journaling has not only become a personal practice – but a way to share faith and fellowship!  I now lead Prayer Journaling “Classes”!  If you want more information or would like to set your own “Prayer Journal Party” date on the calendar – let’s talk!  It is so much fun and is so relaxing!

3. Prayer, Wine, Chocolate is going to keep providing inspiration, gift guides and writing that I hope you enjoy.  I would love to know what you would like me to write about!  Someone once asked me to write about “Finding time for Jesus”.  I prayed, thought and wrote this – When There is No Time for Prayer!  I will do my best to write about what you are thinking about!  Email me or message me at Prayer Wine Chocolate on Facebook

4. More videos!  I loved providing a glimpse at the holy places I visited this summer! And last year I was so excited to give you gift ideas for Christmas!  This year I am going to do another issue of Spiritual Stocking Stuffers – and in addition to the article, I am also going to showcase the items on video!  I will use Facebook Live for sure – but I also would like to start a Youtube channel! More on that coming soon!

Thank you so much for sharing this journey with me!  You rock!  God Bless and Cheers 🙂
