This blog is not yet a year old, but it has grown quite well, and I am happy with the relationships I have formed since establishing it.

That being said, Modestia will continue in ‘09, and I have spent the last few weeks thinking up new threads for our mutual enjoyment and growth as Catholic women.

1. Saint of the Month

At the beginning of every month I will highlight a new saint for study, and dedicate at least one post per week on the life of that saint, devotions, and what his or her witness can teach us in this modern age.

2. Man of the Month

Because Catholic men should get some praise too! This thread will be composed of Catholic actors, models, clergy, students, activists, and any other guy worthy of a little pat on the back.

3. We Believe…

The “We Believe” thread will be my exploration of the Church’s position on contemporary faith issues. I will pay particular attention to life issues and moral theology in this thread. 

I’m also working on some analytical posts of encyclicals and papal writings. And of course, I will continue with the posts on fashion, social justice, chastity, etc.

BTW, I’m looking for more guest posts, so if you’re interested in writing about something, let me know. I hope you have enjoyed the site thus far and will stay with me during this next year to come!

Pax Christi, Rebecca.
