"I remember the tiny white blanket, so lovingly knitted with prayer, wrapped around my shoulders.
I remember Katie making thesign of the cross on my forehead with ashes. I remember how it felt to have
my feet washed with suchreverence. I remember what it felt like to see the single light of Christ extinguished.
​These memories arenow a part of my faith experience and I go forth in love, light and joy that protect me
​ even in my darkest days. I am filled with purpose."

"For a few moments, I ask you to listen to the world around you. I invite you to make peace with whatever is
racing through your mind at this moment. You are breathing the same breath as the one beside you. God is with you."

-Nicole Morlan
