Heidi Saxton is available as a speaker to parish
groups and retreats. Some of her topics include:
- "Praying Like Our Lady: Seven Words of Mary in
Scripture": A guided reflection on the seven times Mary's words are
recorded in Scripture, and how those seven "words" relate to traditional
Catholic prayer forms.
- "Taming the Mommy Monster": Examines the seven
deadly sins and celestial virtues through the lens of motherhood.
Participants are encouraged to develop their own spiritual "wait training"
program to produce spiritual strength and endurance.
- "Good Girls of the Gospel: Images of Feminine
Strength": This talk, which is tied to the 20th Anniversary of the release
of "Mulieris Dignitatem," addresses the ways that authentic feminine gifts
are a force for good in society. Depicts Mary as the ultimate model of
virtue.
Other topics on issues pertaining to faith and
family life may be developed according to your particular needs.
