Mary Shea and I have been working together on promoting this year’s Future with Hope women’s conference as well as gathering auction items for an upcoming benefit gala that honors Cardinal Donald Wuerl. Mary and I both have backgrounds as journalists, and that established an instant bond when we first met two years ago. But collaborating on these projects also has illumined for me her deep love for her family and her devotion to the Lord through evangelization activities including the Legion of Mary.

Regardless of whether people say yes to helping us, Mary is unfailingly polite, positive, and upbeat. She teaches me to focus on offering God’s invitation… not on whether it’s accepted.
