Carole Frey experienced the light of Christ as a child.

Therefore, when Carole has gone through darker seasons in her adult life, she has known where to turn: Jesus.

When overwhelmed with anxiety, Carole sensed God drawing her to church. She spoke with her parish priest. In his pastoral care and wise counsel, he encouraged Carole to share her God-given gifts with their community.

Carole started playing piano and leading her church choir. Despite unexpected twists and turns in her journey, she has continued to serve both adults and children through her music ministry.

Moreover, Carole notices when someone feels isolated, just like she once did.

"I experience a surge of empathy to ensure they become part of the communal fold."

Listen to this Advent "mini retreat in a podcast," deepen your awareness of Jesus drawing you to Himself, and discern how to share your God-given gifts in new and glorious ways!
