About


Patty Breen is a woman with a Catholic spirituality and a heart for deep conversations at the intersection of faith and culture. With over 12 years of ministerial experience, she holds a Master of Pastoral Studies from Sacred Heart Major Seminary in Detroit. Most recently, she serves as a Ministry Formation Manager for Ascension Michigan. 

Patty writes online in several different spaces and travels both locally and nationally speaking at conferences and leading retreats. Meeting people where life finds them, she uses the art of storytelling to connect to their hearts. 

When not serving ministerially or writing, you can find Patty getting stronger at CrossFit, reading lots of good books, and cherishing time with her Godchildren, niece, and nephew. Patty makes a home in the metro Detroit area and is actively involved in her parish




I believe in the life-giving power of story, in the beauty of vulnerability, and in the strength that is found in weakness. I hope you find things here that fill your tank and empower you to use your story to make a difference in the lives of others.

  3. I love your dress! I just found your blog from another one and I love it! I'm looking at starting a blog, and also have started doing bible studies to help me understand the bible because I was raised not really knowing much about God or the bible.
