A Guide for Parents” is a helpful resource for parents of communion-age children


News Image

“Preparing Your Child for Holy Communion: A Guide for Parents”: a welcome tool for religious preparation. “Preparing Your Child for Holy Communion: A Guide for Parents” is the creation of published author Betti Meenattoor, a native of India who earned a degree in biology. She later went on to earn a degree in nursing from the prestigious college of nursing, Christian Medical College, Ludhiana, India, which opened up a world of opportunities for her to serve in different countries.

Meenattoor shares, “First Holy Communion day is the most important and memorable day in the life of a Catholic child. Eucharist is the ineffable gift, and Holy Communion is the fusion between us and Jesus. Children start longing to receive Holy Communion at an early age but have to wait till they reach the age of discernment. In preparation, they attend a yearlong classes and training, either through the Catholic School or the Sunday School Faith Formation classes. At the end of this lengthy preparation, we still ask the same question: Are we really ready?

“Family is the domestic church, and parents are the primary catechism teachers. Knowledge is power and education is empowerment. Being involved actively in faith formation, in Holy Communion preparation, being a teacher and director of religious education for the past several years, answering the parents and reassuring them again and again, I thought of putting it together, hence this book, Preparing Your Child for Holy Communion: A Guide for Parents.”

Published by Christian Faith Publishing, Betti Meenattoor’s new book is an encouraging guide for parents who seek to set their children on a promising religious path.

Meenattoor provides a reassuring and educational resource in hopes of helping parents navigate the process of First Holy Communion.

Consumers can purchase “Preparing Your Child for Holy Communion: A Guide for Parents” at traditional brick & mortar bookstores, or online at Amazon.com, Apple iTunes store, or Barnes and Noble.

Author Christine Adrow’s new book “Untouched Innocence” is a powerful tool for navigating the dangers of sin and understanding how to remain in God’s grace


News Image

Christine Adrow, a great-grandmother and active mentor to young people, has completed her new book “Untouched Innocence: A Personal Enrichment and Christian Training Manual for Youths”: an instructional guide to understanding the role sin plays within society and one’s relationship with God.

As Adrow writes, “Careful attention was put into writing this book so the young people who read it will get a good understanding of its contents. I pray that it will help someone who needs it. The scriptures were taken from the New American Standard Bible, which makes the Scriptures easily understood. The title of this book denotes that you, as young people, should not be touched by sin, but because of man’s sinful nature and his disregard for the value of the lives of our young people, sin is passed down from generation to generation. But there is still hope; we must band together in prayer and love to see those generations saved. There are young people who are losing their souls to a burning hell. And we, the older generation, are sitting idly by watching with no concern to do something about it. We cannot afford to keep allowing you, our young people, to be lost because we feel we are going to offend you if we correct you. You all are worth saving; Jesus died for that purpose. Some say it is you all’s choice, but we must also help you see there are better choices and that God is waiting with open arms.”

Published by Page Publishing, Christine Adrow’s powerful work is an important tool for readers to have in their arsenal while moving through a world that has come to prioritize sin in all aspects of culture. From identifying false prophets to learning to forgive, Adrow provides a vital look into how one can remain in God’s graces and maintain a pure soul free from the burden of sin that is ready to enter God’s Kingdom.

Readers who wish to experience this devotional work can purchase “Untouched Innocence: A Personal Enrichment and Christian Training Manual for Youths” at bookstores everywhere, or online at the Apple iTunes Store, Amazon, Google Play, or Barnes and Noble.

Author Carmen Renae Miller’s new book “My Unusual Life with Jesus” is a compelling work that shares the author’s life experiences through childhood and into adulthood


News Image

Carmen Renae Miller has completed her new book “My Unusual Life with Jesus”: a gripping and potent autobiography that shares the author’s story of perseverance and determination throughout her life.

Author Carmen Renae Miller begins her work by starting at the very beginning of her life’s journey, writing, “Well, where do I begin? I might as well start with the day I was born. It was September 9, 1954. My dad, brother (fourteen years old), and my sister (eight years old) were all waiting in the Sturgis Hospital’s waiting room. My mother was in the delivery room giving birth to me. Suddenly the doctor (Dr. Masa) came out to the waiting room and said that Lavina (my mother) was having complications. He asked my dad if he should save the mother or the baby. My dad yelled back to him that he wasn’t going to make that decision and that he needed to go back into the delivery room and save both of us! So Dr. Masa went back and did his best, and Dad started praying. During the delivery, my mother saw Jesus walking toward her on beautiful green grass. Dr. Masa was using surgical tongs to get me out of my mother’s womb. Finally I was born, but I looked terrible because I was all bruised up on my face and head, trying to get me out of my mother’s womb. Dr. Masa came back into the waiting room and told my dad, ‘Congratulations. I saved both your wife and your new baby girl.’”

The Detroit area hockey players and Red Wing Alumni skating to close the disability divide


The Detroit Red Wing Alumni will go up against a team of area hockey players who are each raising money and awareness for Michigan United Cerebral Palsy (MI-UCP). Over the past 20 years, this event has raised nearly $500,000 to assist the 1.4 million Michiganders with disabilities.

MI-UCP (mi-ucp.org) is a statewide nonprofit organization that’s been improving the lives of people with disabilities for the past 73 years. This desire to serve comes from a belief that everyone has the right to live to the best of their abilities and go as far as their ambitions will take them. The monies raised by this Charity Hockey Event allows MI-UCP to continue programs and services that benefit the people MI-UCP serves across the state of Michigan.

There are two rosters and every player on these rosters is posted on the website where each has a goal to raise funds for MI-UCP. The website is skatewithoutlimits.org

The UCP Pucksters is a team of local hockey players at every level who will take on the Red Wing Alumni and each player has a goal to raise at least $500 for MI-UCP (many end up raising much more). The UCP Sledsters is a team comprised of able-bodied players who will try to play sled hockey and be raising money online to benefit MI-UCP.

This will be the 20th ever charity hockey event as the 2020 and 2021 games were canceled. There will be two games: A Sled Hockey Exhibition featuring the newly formed Metro Detroit Belle Tire Bombers Youth Sled Hockey Program (metrodetroitsledhockey.org) and the UCP Sledsters at 4 p.m. followed by the UCP Pucksters against Detroit Red Wings Alumni


  • MEDIA COVERAGE would sure help fill the stands at this fun family fundraiser.
  • Pucksters & Red Wings Alumni are available for interview upon request. *

The Detroit Red Wings Alumni Association, the oldest such organization in the NHL, plays 30 games a year to benefit worthy charities. While the final game day roster will not be solidified until the week of the game, the Red Wings Alumni roster includes fan favorites like John Ogrodnick, Darren McCarty, Jimmy Carson, Pat Peake, Brent Fedyk and Mickey Redmond.

The event is open to the public and admission for 2022 is FREE!

Doors open at 3:30 p.m. on March 23rd at St. Mary’s Arena in Orchard Lake, Michigan. There will also be a rummage sale and 50/50 raffle. It all begins at 3:30 p.m. Sled exhibition at 4 p.m., followed by Red Wings Alumni vs UCP Pucksters at 6 p.m.
