Before reading St. John of the Cross, I'd recommend you read THIS TREMENDOUS LOVER by Fr. Eugene Boylan. St. John is not easy -- not by any means, and I think it would help to have some background in the Catholic spiritual tradition before taking on St. John.

Thanks, Jeff! I'll look into this book... I appreciate the advice and concern!

Also, I understand what you were saying about Easter...

God bless...

How wonderful that you chose Elizabeth Ann Seton, also a mother and a convert. You'll be in my prayers throughout Holy Week - sounds like you're planning a spiritual, prayerful journey through this very special time. God bless.
