Hi, I'm Clarissa.

I came to the Catholic Church as an adult, which means I know what it feels like to sit in a pew wondering whether everyone else understands something you somehow missed.

​

Over time, I discovered that faith isn't something we master. It's something we cultivate.

​

God met me through prayer, family, parish life, ministry, Scripture, the sacraments, and plenty of seasons when I was still trying to understand what He was doing.

​

Graced & Grounded grew from that journey—and from a desire to walk alongside other women who want a deeper relationship with God but don't always feel like they have faith figured out.

Receive reflections and resources to help you grow in faith.

“You have to be holy where you are—wherever God has put you.”
