Mary, Woman of Faith Chapter

invites you to our

November 4th  Prayer Breakfast

About Our Speaker:

 Janice Nelson

"So let your light shine before men, that they may see your good works,
and glorify your Father, Who is in Heaven."
-Matthew 5:16

Janice Nelson is a native of Seattle, Washington, and attended the University of Washington where she met Jack, her husband. Janice and Jack (who is a recently retired law professor) have been married forty-seven years and have three children and seven grandchildren. Janice and Jack share an active and enthusiastic love of the Catholic faith, although neither of them was Catholic when they married. After much prayer and study that included baptism in the Holy Spirit, Janice and Jack joined the Catholic Church together in 1976.  They are members of The Cathedral of St. Paul in Birmingham.

The list of Janice’s spiritual and corporal works for the Lord is long and constantly evolving. Through the years, the Holy Spirit has called Janice to “sidewalk counseling” outside abortion centers, become a founding member of Her Choice Birmingham and the Helpers of God's Precious Infants, contribute to a daily blog for the local “Forty Days for Life” prayer campaign, and serve as president of the Confraternity of Christian Mothers for a two-year term. She is a Spiritual Child of Padre Pio and is called to pray for priests.  Janice has written and published Rhyme Time, "Fun, Active, Modern Nursery Rhymes to Help Little Ones Prepare for School.”

You will not want to miss Janice’s beautiful testimony about her devotion to Our Lord and His Blessed Mother and the extraordinary places she has joyfully followed them in her spiritual life. In Janice’s words, “To work for Jesus is a journey of service of love with His strength and fortitude and with the Holy Spirit’s fruitful results! Joy is found in all work and all circumstances. Each moment and all work is a prayer for souls.”
