Last week we had the privilege of joining Patty Bonds for dinner and then spending an evening with her very nice family. (Click on the current family picture for larger image.) She is a delightful lady who really loves Our Lord and the Catholic Church. After been raised as a Reformed Baptist (her father was a "pastor") she found the Catholic Church seven years ago and has never looked back — like untold hundreds, if not thousands I've heard from over the last few years (for hundreds of such conversion stories, click here.)
Her three daughters – Kim, Sarah and Esther – are following in her spiritual footsteps. In the picture you can see me and my wife Janet, then Patty. To the right of Patty is her daughter Kim with husband Mike and their boys Gabriel and Isaac. Patty’s daughter Esther is holding Isaac. Sarah was not home during this visit.
Patty asked me to let people know about her blog. She is going to be posting what she referred to as “some important things” over the next few months and wanted to get the word out. Her blog is "Abba’s Little Girl" at http://abbaslittlegirl.blogspot.com/
