Living for God with Joy Pinto of "At Home with Jim and Joy"

Joy Pinto lives for the "audience of one" every day--she lives for Christ.

At 48 Joy was diagnosed with stage 3 colon cancer. As she faced her painful illness and mortality, her faith was tested in a way she would never change.

One day Joy was in bed for 17 hours and she asked God when the "fire" would be over. God responded, "When you can dance with me in the fire." Joy got up from bed and slowly danced with Jesus.

This intimacy with Christ and the conviction of her belief has continued to carry Joy and helped her to share her love of God with others.

Joy shares this love through her work with Her Choice Birmingham Women's Center and the At Home with Jim and Joy show on EWTN, as well as personally with her home parish, friends and family.

Rosemary Thérèse: The Little Flower of Nashville with Hayley Robinson Shovlin

When Rosemary Thérèse Robinson (affectionately known as “Rosie") was diagnosed with childhood cancer, her five older siblings returned home to support her. Little did they know that Rosie would not only carry her own cross of suffering, but would help carry theirs and their parents' crosses, as well.

Rosie never complained. She laughed and loved with her family and retreated to the quiet of her bedroom when in pain. She also wrote letters to God.

These letters were so filled with the faith and joy reminiscent of Saint Thérèse that they moved the heart of a local Dominican nun to nickname Rosie “The Little Flower of Nashville.”

Listen to Rosie’s sister Hayley share about the gift of Rosie, as well as the witness of her parents as they accompanied their beloved daughter as she prepared to go home to Jesus at just 19.

This is a witness of the bonds of a family deeply rooted in prayer, faith and the supernatural love of God. But it is most of all the story of a young girl who reflected Our Blessed Mother as she said, “Let it be done to me according to thy word.”
