​
Our Life is a moment to moment ‘yes’ to the invitation of a loving GOD. Here in St. Brendan´s community, forever grateful of being welcomed and accepted by friendly and wonderful people creating a ‘ripple’ in my heart as I go and make myself present to the different small Faith Groups and do my other Ministries with a ‘smile’.  My hope is -  even in my own simple and joyful way, I too, can create a ‘ripple’ in people´s hearts and together can make a difference in people´s lives.
