From the bottom of my heart, I believe that every child deserves a chance at life, and every mother deserves to be supported—especially when she is vulnerable, scared, or alone. That’s why I’m proud to support Our Lady of Guadalupe Home in Windsor, Ontario: a place of real hope for women in crisis pregnancies.

This incredible home welcomes pregnant women and new mothers who have nowhere else to go. It offers more than just a roof over their heads—it gives them safety, compassion, and stability, all grounded in Catholic faith and the dignity of every human life. They are one of the only homes in Canada that provides 24/7 paid staff, ensuring that each woman receives not only shelter, but consistent emotional and practical support.

As someone who loves children deeply, I often wonder and worry about how I can do more to help children in need. All I pray for is that all children are given the best possible start. I may only be one person, but I believe that when we come together as a community, we can do far more than any of us can do alone. That’s why I’ve chosen to use my gifts and my voice to help raise awareness—and raise support—for this life-giving ministry.

One of the reasons I wrote my children’s book, My First Catholic Marian Apparitions, was as a gesture of love for the women and babies at Our Lady of Guadalupe Home. Every dollar from the sale of this book will go directly to the home—not just once, but in perpetuity. This is my small way of helping make a big difference.

I want every woman to know: you are not alone. There are people ready to walk with you, to help you, to shelter you—and to love both you and your baby.

Our Lady of Guadalupe Home is one of those places.

If this mission speaks to your heart too, I invite you to join me. Whether you buy the book, pray for the home, donate, or simply spread the word, you are helping save lives—both physically and spiritually.

Let us be the kind of community where no mother ever has to face a "difficult decision" alone again.

In Jesus, Mary and Joseph,

Joanna Loop
