Moments of Grace (Paperback)

Summary Moments of Grace, the first in a series of spiritual poetry, embraces the idea of pilgrimage. Desiring to be reunited with God, the soul perceives that God is already present in the ordinary and extraordinary events of life. The Lord's presence in the inevitable times of joy, sorrow and transitions are moments of grace. The author occasionally code-switches (English/Spanish) and includes a section on Journaling with Scripture and reflection. About the Author Mary Olivia Patino has led spiritual retreats and workshops for many years. She facilitates what she believes to be the only faith-based writing group, Writing with Angels, in the San Antonio Archdiocese and leads creative writing workshops.
