Thesis: Imago Trinitatis
This is my master's thesis for Kenrick-Glennon Seminary.  Throughout my time here, I became very interested in the works of Hans Urs von Balthasar and Adrienne von Speyr, particularly seeing how their understanding of sexuality is a beautiful articulation of our theological tradition responding to contemporary issues.  The thesis is long and written in a more scholarly language, but with patience, I hope that anyone can pick it up and gain insights from it.  I particularly recommend Chapter 1, which gives a biography of von Balthasar and von Speyr, and Chapter 4, which goes through the life of the Blessed Virgin Mary.


Curriculum for 5th Grade: Revelation and Response
I taught 5th graders at Immacolata Parish in St. Louis for a year, and it was a fantastic experience. I had a general idea of where I wanted the class to go, but over the year, I developed this approach, and then for a project for my Spiritual Direction Practicum class, I wrote out the curriculum I developed and highlighted how I could teach the students to pray, using the acronym "STL." If you're needing some inspiration for teaching material, I hope this can help you out!



Music Inspires Video Project
In October 2017, I gathered with several religious sisters and a Franciscan friar to record a couple of songs and videos.  We aimed to produce this to highlight the beauty of both religious life and prayerful music.  It was such a blessed time, and I'm glad that hundreds of people have gotten to see this since.
