About Dreams Deferred Frances Matthew Hall is obedient to family tradition: all firstborn sons will serve as a priest. Now Matt officiates at St. Aloysius Catholic Church in San Antonio, Texas.

A Warm Welcome to Julie Cosgrove Julie shares a thought-provoking devotional.

I recall my mom and dad having a huge, white wardrobe in their bedroom and in one of the bottom drawers was a stack of Little Golden Books. I could pick one each night and then crawl up on her lap as we “read” it together. The Pokey Little Puppy and Grandpa Bunny-Bunny were my favorite. Once I got into school, we made weekly trips to the library. When I turned ten, I got my very own library card!  About that time, I discovered Mary Stewart, who is now deceased. She was a fabulous romantic suspense writer who set her books all over Europe. I
