(Sorry, I know I messed up the spelling of that name.) I think the name of her weekly series is the Abundant Life.

Johnnette continues to host "The Abundant Life" seen internationally over at EWTN TV and her "Living His Life Abundantly" and "Moments of Truth Live" radio programs. May he rest in peace!

Infact, there was a prayer posted for her on this forum at that time by Father Michael Sopoliga. He provided a link to her e-mail for condolences, and I remember receiving a response from her. May God forgive the sins of her beloved husband, and may his memory be eternal. May our Lady Theotokos console this diligent and faithful worker in her Son's vineyard. In Christ, Alice
