Hey everyone--
Hope you all had a marvelous and enjoyable Christmas!! I am back from my "holiday" break and will begin posting a slew of things tomorrow. Among them--holiday pope stories, the female pope (again!), movie review, and all sorts of other goodies. Check back tomorrow for more!
No-nonsense Catholicism from a twentysomething who is in love with her faith. Covers politics, culture, and other topics from a Catholic perspective, as well as religious topics. "Preach always, and when necessary, use words." --St. Anthony

About Me
- Emily
- I'm 27 years old, living in Ohio. I'm a graduate of Capital University with B.A.s in English Lit and Political Science. I am studying for my Masters Degree in Theology/Christian Ministry (Franciscan University). I'm the oldest of three children and the second oldest of 25 grandkids! (And I have a godson, Ryan, whom I adore) You can find me onstage, rehearsing a show, at the art museum, ballet, or movie theater. Or at my apartment, reading. :) Questions?
