I am so thankful for Tim, Elizabeth, our selfless group of moderators, and our caring and loving members and lurkers.

Thank you, once again, for giving of yourselves, for praying for our intentions, for sharing what makes Catholic homeschooling and family life work - and for allowing all of us to help bear those heavy crosses.

There are so many times in life when we feel overwhelmed, truly crushed by our burdens. I know I can run to my 4Real sisters (and brothers) and ask for help at any time. You've helped me and so many others carry those crosses. I hope I can return the favor in some small way when my time comes.

May God bless everyone who works to make this site happen - the technical folks, the volunteer moderators, the moms who share their hearts and hopes with all of us.

You change lives. People you'll never meet call me up and ask for your prayers, because they know God listens to you. You give hope to the hopeless and help to those in need...May God reward you for your devotion to His commandments to love others as we love Him.

Nancy,
    I've been wanting to share what's in my heart in thanksgiving for this place, those who make it possible, and all who are here to support, encourage, lift up, pray for, and love.

    I agree, people ask me to post my prayers HERE particularly, because this is a very special and powerful place of prayer. I am so convinced of that, I cannot tell you. And I've committed myself to come here much more, to pray more specifically (rather than generally), and to participate more fully in a very important place of prayer.

      You have written what's in my heart as well. THANK YOU GOD for this place, and THANK YOU ALL for being here, and giving yourselves all in humble obedience and love to Him.

With Love and Thankfulness,
Tracy Q.
