Welcome! I'm glad you're here!

Loam & Light is a simple place for steady Catholic prayer - Scripture, short reflections and a quiet invitation to meet God without fear or hurry. Don't worry if you aren't Catholic, you are welcome here too. It's just that I am Catholic, it is an important part of who I am and that means it will definitely be part of what I am writing and saying.

How to Use This Site?

Please use this site like a simple prayer rhythm - small, steady steps that add up over time.

  • Start with the latest reflection (most people do).
  • If you would like to move more slowly, just set a consistent time and keep showing up - even when it feels ordinary.
  • If you miss a day, don't worry about "catching up" (unless you want to). Just return and get back to the rhythm.

What to Expect?

Most days take about 10–15 minutes: read a short passage of Scripture (from your own Bible), read the reflection, and spend a few quiet minutes in prayer.
