First and foremost, Jennifer is a beloved daughter of God, a devoted wife, and the mother of two little ones on earth and one in heaven. And... she loves to write!

Through every season of life, Jennifer has discovered that thriving is found in walking closely with Christ and embracing the unique calling to be a Catholic Presence in the world. Sharing what God has taught her along the way has become part of her mission.

Her own journey has included discerning a cloistered religious vocation, overcoming depression and anxiety, opening her heart to marriage, and learning to live with joy and gratitude as she witnesses God continually writing "straight with crooked lines."

When she isn't writing, Jennifer enjoys spending time with her family, praying with devotional books, and learning from the wisdom of faithful friends. She also treasures the companionship of her heavenly friends... Our Lady, St. Thérèse of Lisieux, St. Faustina, and St. Bernadette who holds a special place in her heart as her Confirmation saint.

Although Jennifer is currently busy with her own "domestic youth group," she previously spent many years encouraging high school students to grow in their faith and discover God's personal love for them. She also shares her reflections through her YouTube channel, @acatholicpresence, where her videos are available to watch today.

Jennifer hopes this website is a blessing to you. While it continues to grow and develop, she also invites you to visit her original blog on Blogger.
