Greg Schlueter, as a developing Catholic Media Producer, has a mission, along with Stephanie, to build-up the Kingdom of GOD. His previous experience working in communications for Human Life International, a year of discernment with Fr. Benedict Groeschel, and nearly 3 years discerning the priesthood explains why they have won awards and souls for all their excellent efforts and content.

HISTORY of McHenry, IL- Mary, Mother of the Eucharist Chapter of Magnificat
(For the Diocese of Rockford) It all began with the Blessed Mother. Following a visit to Medjugorje, Annette Baber was drawn to a Texas chapter of Magnificat. When she moved to Illinois in 2000 Our Lady kept prompting her to found a new chapter. It started with a simple prayer group of local devout Catholic women. It was at these prayer meetings that they felt the promptings to begin the process of officially becoming a part of Magnificat. 2002 saw the group anointed by their spiritual director, Fr Robert Sherry. There were 550 at their first prayer breakfast in May. They led Life in the Spirit seminars, weekly prayer meetings and numerous prayer breakfasts over the years. Mary, Mother of the Eucharist chapter continues to serve and lead women to support each other and birth Jesus in our hearts as Our Mother did.
