MARY BETH KREMSKI
Well — in case you haven’t been over to visit/listen to this week’s Catholic Vitamins, let me share a few words about a delightful guest, Mary Beth Kremski. Mary Beth was recommended to us by Denise Bossert (who contributed a number of ‘vitamin’ reflections in the past few months. I had such respect for Denise that I was anxious to learn about and then speak with Mary Beth. 
If you are familiar with the Surprised by Truth series of books by Patrick Madrid, you can find Mary’s story in the second of the series. I read it and found her to be a real seeker of truth. She has an unquenchable thirst for God’s will in her life. And since her strong reversion back to Catholicism, Mary Beth has written articles that you can find on Facebook (e.g. Making Converts of Cradle Catholics), Catholic Answers, Conservative Colloquium, etc. She’s also appeared on the Journey Home program with Marcus Grodi on EWTN.
During our visit with Mary Beth, she mentioned the wonderful Sister Briege McKenna, author and speaker. I reminded MB and our listeners that we had a segment of a Franciscan University talk given by Sr. Briege – it was the story of her visit to the Oprah Winfrey television show.
