Our Guest Speaker: LISA WHITMAN
Lisa Whitman was born and raised in Thibodaux, LA. She is one of 10 children and has been married to Phil Whitman for 46 years. They have 4 beautiful daughters, who are all married to wonderful men, and they are blessed with 8 grandchildren. Lisa is an active parishioner of St. Charles Borromeo Catholic Church in Thibodaux; she is currently working as the church’s youth formation coordinator. She is an Extraordinary Minister of Communion and a member of the Ladies Altar Society.
Lisa’s journey with Jesus has been filled with many blessings and graces as well as many trials and hardships. There were moments she encountered Jesus and experienced His miraculous healings! She has also been through many challenges that tested her faith, but God has always shown that He is with her in everything. Her spiritual journey has taken on a much greater and deeper meaning, and she gives all glory and praise to our Lord and Savior for His love and mercy.
Religious books will be available for purchase at the meal.
Since the day is designed to speak to the hearts of women, free of distractions, it is respectfully requested that young children not be in attendance.
