Teresópolis, Brazil — This is the story of Tiago, a young man from the Minas Gerais province of Brazil. It is a very honest account of his life and struggles with drug addiction. When we met Tiago, he was in his 10th month of a rehabilitation program with Fazenda da Esperanca, a very unique type of rehab. It helps people struggling with addictions recover focusing on rebuilding their sense of self worth, work ethic, and most importantly belief in Jesus Christ, the ultimate healer.

BOULDER, CO, USA — Colorado Triathlete Brad Seng resides in Boulder Colorado where he trains for triathlons as a professional athlete. Can you imagine swimming for 2.4 miles, biking for 112 miles, and just to make sure you do not have too much energy left over, run a full marathon of 26.2 miles? Those three events are run back to back to back (in 1 day!), and is exactly what Brad Seng trains for as a Triathlete in Colorado. The rigors and discipline create quite the training regimen. … Read More »

Raquel Kato’s 21st Birthday Party Changed LIFE Forever

15th April

I was that Girl that Could Not Say No
‘God pierced my soul when I was all alone, wandering in the darkness’

Published on: April 15th, 2013 — 11:19 AM / OBS: North America

GREELEY, CO, USA — Her world was turned upside down. She was single. Alone. Afraid. Her 21st birthday party led to trying moments, in the middle of college. Abusing alcohol led to decisions, choices, defining life moments, and eventually a little life inside of her; a little baby girl moving, breathing, and learning the love of this world through the womb of her mother. A place, the womb of a mother, which was once considered the safest place on earth for babies. (more below)

Lighthouse Women’s Center and Paula Suhr Bring Hope to Denver Women, Unborn Children

You can always Choose to let the Child Live
“My parents faith was never going through the motions, it really was the most important aspect of their life.”

DENVER, CO, USA — Reflecting upon past generations of Catholics, who courageously crossed the Atlantic by ship, and laid the groundwork for the seeds of faith in America, is important to remember in 2013. Their fortitude sometimes goes unnoticed in familial conversations within Catholic circles, but not for Paula Suhr. Hailing from Irish, Italian, and German roots, her family preserved their Catholic identity for many centuries and generations, a sacrifice that Paula is incredibly grateful for. It is her appreciation for the Sacraments, especially the sacrament of Holy Matrimony and the honor in raising 3 wonderful children, that really gets Paula … Read More »

MANILA, THE PHILIPPINES — In September, Leah Darrow and Chris Stefanick spoke to massive crowds in the Philippines on the topic of human dignity and authentic love. What must be known from the outset is that Leah Darrow was raised Catholic, a former contestant on America’s Next Top Model, and willingly admits that she was formerly a huge proponent of ‘theology of me,’ before a personal St. Paul moment. Before the St. Paul awakening in Leah’s heart, contraceptives from Planned Parenthood, … Read More »

DENVER, CO, USA — Hailing from Cali, Shaina Stein grew up in a very diverse all-American city called Stockton. She was raised a bit outside of town, in a fairly privileged background, in cherry tree country. It was in Stockton, that Shaina was able to first ponder the notion of God and religion in her youth.
