“A
Life Rewritten,” is Connie Anderson's testimony of her journey to reconciliation with God and profession
of the Catholic Faith. Connie is a single mom of six from Island
Lake, Illinois. She is a member of the militia of the Immaculata and the
Legion of Mary. She has worked as a pregnancy counselor and an
accountant manager for Lighthouse Catholic Media . At age 4 Connie saw a
vision of what she could later realize was Sister Faustina's image of the
Divine Mercy. The image would not make sense for many years. Growing up
the daughter of a Lutheran minister and granddaughter of a bishop in a
completely Catholic hometown. Connie was beaten up for being a
protestant pastor's kid. She attended North Park University in Chicago
to be a teacher, but it was her years in school of the Holy Ghost as she
calls it with courses in applied studies in the book of Job studies
that would lead the prodigal pastor’s daughter home. Running from the
faith, she took the pen of her life in her own hands. After spending 18
years in 2 failed marriages which included her own rape and abuse,
poverty and finally the incest of her daughter Connie saw the image
again.. and heard the voice of a woman she had never known... Mary, the
Mother of God. Connie shares the story of her homecoming and the
rewriting of her life by the pen of divine love. Her hope is by sharing
it your story will be rewritten too with Divine Mercy.
