Welcome Sisters, I’m Brigid.

I'm so glad you're here.

I'm an Orthodox Christian, a convert from Roman Catholicism, and—by God’s grace—a first-time mother, expecting a daughter on New Year's Day. My journey into the Orthodox Church began with a deep longing for truth, beauty, and tradition, and by the mercy of Christ, I was received into the Church on Lazarus Saturday in 2022.

This space is a reflection of my life as an Orthodox woman walking the path of pregnancy, motherhood, and faith. Here, I share thoughts, experiences, and encouragement for others navigating similar seasons—whether you're an expectant mother, a fellow convert, or someone simply drawn to the richness of Orthodox life.

May this be a place of peace, connection, and support as we seek Christ together.

With love in Christ,
Brigid

Rooted in tradition. Growing in grace.

This blog was born from a desire to share the joys and struggles of living an Orthodox Christian life as a woman. Since being received into the Church, I've been continually humbled and inspired by the depth and beauty of Orthodox tradition, especially as it relates to womanhood, family, and the sanctity of life.

My hope is that this becomes more than just a personal journal—it’s a place for encouragement, community, and honest conversation.

Whether you're new to the faith, navigating your own conversion, expecting a child, or simply curious about Orthodox Christian life, I pray you find something here that speaks to your heart.

In sharing my story, I hope to point always and only to Christ, the Theotokos, and the life-giving tradition of the Church that sustains and sanctifies us, even in the small, hidden moments of daily life.
