2024 Conference

Theme: Sursum Corda: Lifting Up Our Hearts in a Time of Crisis

By Sister Marie Gabrielle, M.I.C.M.

A Thousand Times Happy: An Exhortation to Love Mary and Fear Nothing

In this fitting complement to her 2018 talk, “What Mary Wants from You,” Sister Marie Gabrielle, M.I.C.M., sets out to show how Our Lady crushes every single one of the multi-headed monster of Fear that terrorizes so many of us, sabotaging the happiness that should be ours by virtue of our Baptism. Full of inspiring quotes, illustrative anecdotes from the lives of the saints, and splashes of holy humor, this talk will be of immense aid to anyone suffering from the Fear of Difficulties, the Fear of Having to Change, the Fear of the Future, the Fear of Failure, or the Fear of Abandonment. Sister draws heavily on the lives and teachings of two of the most Marian saints in history to show that nothing is worth fearing when we truly love the Blessed Virgin Mary.
