Start Your Day the Carmelite Way | Louisville Catholic Women
July 16, 2022 @ 9:30 am - 11:30 am
JULY 16 = Louisville Catholic Women (18+)
Dear Catholic Women of Louisville,
We are very excited about this NEW ministry that is coming together just for YOU! A chance to meet and mingle with other Catholic women from throughout the Louisville area … women of all ages and stages in life (18+) … to build community as we learn from one another and grow in friendship.
Our Kickoff Brunch was held in June with almost 60 women in attendance. It was a wonderful event and a great start to this new ministry!
Mark your calendar for the 3rd Saturday of each month and watch for details on time, location and format!
The July event falls on Saturday, July 16 — the Feast of Our Lady of Mount Carmel, thus the focus will be Carmelite Spirituality (PLUS time for fellowship at the beginning and end).
Father Martin Linebach, Rector of the Cathedral and Co-founder & Chaplain of Family Renewal Project will hear confessions (10-11am) and will perform the official enrollment ceremony into Brown Scapular Confraternity for those seeking the scapular promise. What is that?? Come find out!! [Both Confession and Scapular enrollment are OPTIONAL]
Denese Alexsonshk will be our guest presenter. Denese is relatively new to Louisville and currently serves as the President of the Secular Discalced Carmelite Community of the Holy Spirit in Louisville. See her full bio below.

BIO OF OUR SPECIAL GUEST SPEAKER
My Name is Denese Alexsonshk. My husband Edward and I moved to Louisville in 2017 and are members of St. Martin of Tours Catholic Church. We have 2 grown sons and 4 grandchildren.
I was born in Canton, Ohio, the youngest of eight children, raised Catholic, but fell away from the faith during high school. In 1999, through the intervention of Our Blessed Mother, I returned to the faith with an intense love for the Church. Later, that same year while on pilgrimage in Medjugorje, I was given a deep love for God’s Holy priesthood. Soon after, because of their charism of prayer, especially prayer for priests, I became a Secular Discalced Carmelite. Throughout the years I have served in a variety of Parish ministries and prison ministry as well. I also served on the Diocesan Vocation Awareness Committee in Steubenville, Ohio, and as the past President of the Secular Discalced Carmelite Community in Steubenville. I have served on the board of the Marian Center here in Louisville and am currently a member of the Louisville Archdiocesan Marian Committee. Most recently, I am the President of the Secular Discalced Carmelite Community of the Holy Spirit in Louisville, KY.
I look forward to being with you on Our Lady’s Feast Day, July 16!
