Learning to Laugh with Mary Fortier

Millions of Monicas with Sherri Meyer

Many mothers carry a deep desire to see their children grow closer to Christ, but they don't have to carry that burden alone. This week on the Corpus Christi Parish Podcast, Fr. Matthew welcomes Sherri Meyer, local coordinator of Millions of Monicas, a beautiful Catholic prayer ministry inspired by the steadfast faith of St. Monica. Sherri shares how women gather in prayer to entrust their children and loved ones to God, asking for the grace of a deeper relationship with Jesus and a joyful return to the Catholic faith. Millions of Monicas is a prayer ministry—not a support group—where women unite in hope, trust, and the power of prayer. If you've ever prayed for a child, grandchild, godchild, or loved one, this conversation is for you. Millions of Monicas meets on the third Monday of each month from 7:00–8:00 PM at St. John Neumann Church. The next gathering is Monday, July 20, and all women are welcome to attend.

Deacon Jerry shares how these 13-week, faith-based support groups provide a safe and welcoming environment where participants can find understanding, practical guidance, and encouragement rooted in Christ's healing love. There is never any pressure to speak—you are welcome to simply listen, learn, and heal at your own pace. Join us as we explore how these ministries help people rediscover hope, experience God's presence in the midst of suffering, and find a caring community ready to walk alongside them.
