Kitty, on a trip to Lake Tahoe last month, my husband and I visited the little St. Mary’s in the Mountains Catholic Church in Virginia City, NV, and your “Sacred Arias” CD was playing in the sanctuary. We were captivated, bought it there and played it in the car all the way back to our […]

Dear Kitty, Your biggest fan (my son Max, as you have been made aware) and I thoroughly enjoyed being able to watch you live on the telethon over the Internet. You were wonderful. Max *told* me that I had to let you know that you were great, as usual (as if he sees you live […]

Kitty, It was a pleasure being with you and your daughter Monday evening! You performed beautifully and proved to be a true professional in your demeanor (even amidst uncertainty and disruption) and performance. I’ve heard nothing but positive feedback, and I was blown away by the two $3,500 private concerts you donated(that’s $7,000 for the […]

What’s Your Word?

I love asking the Holy Spirit to give me a word to guide my new year, which usually ends up being some kind of virtue that needs cultivating in my life: discipline, docility (teachability), etc.

This New Year’s Eve morning, before I even had a chance to pray, I awoke with the Latin word “sapientia” repeating in my mind. I realized that this was my “word” from God, though I couldn’t remember what it meant exactly and had to look it up.

(Drumroll…)

It means “wisdom,” (I can always use more of that!) and it is considered the first and greatest of the seven gifts of the Holy Spirit received at baptism. According to St. Bernard, it both illumines the mind and instills an attraction to the divine.

So how do I grow in wisdom if it is a gift? I can think of only one way: By spending more time with the gift-giver. 💗

I encourage you to pray for a word to guide you in the new year. Please feel free to share it below!

P.S. As I looked for an image for this post, I came across this one from McEwan Hall at the University of Edinburgh in Scotland—where I went to school! God is so fun.
