Seeking Guidance in Fellowship
She also gives practical tips on how working mothers and people with busy lives can contribute to the Church community, by responding to the needs of those around us. One of the things that really touched me was her advice about seeing every person in the pew, next to me as someone with their own struggles and problems. Maria advocates getting involved in the community, while knowing your station and what God is calling you to do every single day to build His church.
