Team Biographies

Married and the father of three children, Sean was born and raised in the glens of  Antrim Ireland,
Sean, along with Kathy Kachel, created this website to help like-minded Catholics to connect and network.
"Iron sharpens iron, we can help each other become the saints we are called to be".
After seeing how much the faith had been decimated in Ireland and the world at large, Sean felt something needed to be done.
"I wanted to create a home for Catholics who love their faith.  Somewhere they can converse and engage in dialogue with one another on forums, or private chat. A place where they can promote and advertise their rosary and prolife,  rallies, marches, and other events".
As well as being co -creator and founder, Sean also posts blogs and creates content for the website.

In the heart of Southern California, a remarkable woman stands as a testament to resilience and faith. She is an artist, a devoted mother of seven (blessed to have raised several more), and a conservative Catholic who has journeyed through life with unwavering determination. Her story is one of survival and strength, embodying the spirit of a true Warrior.​

I am ever ready to do battle with whatever evil presents itself, for God, for Christ, for Mary, for my friends and family, and for the sake of being here. All by the Grace of God. I am blessed beyond imagination.
 

"I am grateful to those who have been on this journey with me no matter what their role was, I am thankful that I have come out the other side. I revel in the beauty of this world and hope that I can contribute to that, but now I'm focused on becoming the saint I am called to be and I want to bring as many along with me as possible.
 

God bless each of you as I offer up my prayers 🙏 for those who are most in need, those who have gone before us and all soul's in purgatory."

Melissa, hailing from the picturesque landscapes of Scotland, is a Catholic convert who found her faith later in life. With no significant religious influence outside of her Christian school, her journey to Catholicism was a personal and profound one. Melissa cherishes the comfort and sense of belonging that comes from being part of a community grounded in the truth of God. Her faith is a cornerstone of her life, providing her with strength, guidance, and a deep sense of peace

One day, after having her beautiful baby boy, Bowie, she felt drawn to enter the local Catholic church. Upon entering, she felt a tingling sensation all over her body, like she was receiving a big cuddle, and heard a voice say, “Child, sit.” After this experience, Melissa started attending Mass every day with Bowie. Within a week, she contacted the priest to inquire about becoming Catholic. At that point, she didn't know much about the religion, but she understood that she was home and that God was with her. Months later, her son Bowie tragically passed away from SIDS. It was then that Melissa fully understood why she had been so suddenly drawn to her church. God knew she would need Him and wanted her to know that He loves her and would help her through the darkness of grief.

Melissa discovered a wonderful community of like-minded Catholics online who welcomed her into their faith movement. She feels passionate about helping others follow the light of the world so they will not walk in darkness. She hopes this website makes other Catholics feel like they aren't alone.
