Speaking

Yes, I speak. Don’t ask my family, though. They’ll tell you I don’t stop

I’m available for small or large groups and have a variety of topics I’m comfortable speaking about listed below. I’m also open to your suggestions and your group’s specific needs.

To arrange to have me speak for your group, email me.

WORKSHOPS & TALKS

  • Moments with Mary: A Walk Through the Rosary (specific to one set of mysteries) – This four-hour prayer retreat is specific to one set of the mysteries of the rosary. You will discover a relationship with Mary, whether you have a devotion or not.
  • Catholic Family Fun – Faith doesn’t have to wait until Sunday, and family fun doesn’t have to exclude who we are as Catholics. This workshop will help you come up with ideas to support your domestic church. Bring your family closer to God by learning to find Him in your midst while spending time together. What is Catholic family fun? Why promote it? How do you implement it? From a parish standpoint, how do you support and even host it?
  • Discovering the Joy in Advent - Advent is often lost in the secular crush of Christmas, but you can keep your home a sanctuary of preparation for Baby Jesus. Sarah Reinhard shares reflections and tips for celebrating Advent in your domestic church.
  • Mary for Moms - As mothers, we’re told to look to the Blessed Mother for inspiration and guidance. Am I the only one who finds that incredibly imposing? For one thing, she’s on a pedestal. For another, she was sinless. Discover the Mary you can relate to and turn to in your darkest mothering moments and find, within yourself, the courage to follow her to her Son.
  • Beyond the Blog – You have a blog. Now what? Sarah Reinhard will share her experiences and insights after five years of blogging in the Catholic realm. We’ll bust myths, share ideas, and discuss candidly whether or not it’s worth the effort. Bring your questions and we’ll discuss them. Come with an open mind, some extra energy, and chocolate.
