Please pray for the Catholic hostages kidnapped by islamist terrorists in Nigeria As their ransom demands have not been met, the terrorists have begun to execute women and children No coverage in western media Please RT so that the world knows about the inhuman crimes committed in Nigeria with the compliance of western politicians, religious leaders and media

"The Father's Son" remains my favorite book. It was winner of the 2025 Catholic Media Association Adult Faith-based Fiction award, has been endorsed by several archdioceses for adult faith programs & was awarded the Catholic Writers Guild Seal of Approval jimsano.com

Readers may be surprised at how much goes on behind the scenes (research, writing, editing, cover design, publishing) to release a novel. It all feels worth it when the publish date is in sight. The Fighter is expected out on June 12 as the latest in The Father Tom Series. Enjoy

Saint Michael, Saint Raphael and Saint Gabriel, pray for us..

Today is the 48th anniversary of my father's passing. It's hard to believe he's been gone that long. I was just a teen when he died. This is me with my dad while he was in Ancora after his nervous breakdown. Photo copyright Ellen Hrkach #missmydad

I've been fortunate to write eight Catholic novels which share the faith through storytelling. The books have won 38 literary book awards and all have the Catholic Writers Guild Seal of approval, but it is the people along the way that I have met that have been the real blessing!

“A society will be judged on the basis of how it treats its weakest members; and among the most vulnerable are surely the unborn and the dying.” (Pope JP II, Address to the New Ambassador of New Zealand to the Holy See, May 25, 2000)

Mother Teresa didn’t compromise on Life. She called abortion what it is and defended the most vulnerable without apology. We need that kind of courage again. St. Teresa of Calcutta, pray for us!

Please #pray for us, the engaged couples, and the other teaching couples at today's Marriage Preparation Course in Renfrew. Thank you! #marriageprep #loveisadecision

I was pleased to see that "Gus Busbi" won the 2026 American Legacy Book Award for Young Adult Fiction and was named a Finalist for Religious Fiction. I loved writing this story and the characters in it. jimsano.com

He didn’t say; “This represents my body.” He didn’t say; “This symbolizes my body.” He said; “This IS my body.”

Do we have faith in the Word of Christ? "How can bread and wine become the body and blood of the Lord? It is a mystery of faith; we believe it because we believe in the Word of the Lord." (Benoit's Jesus)

“There are two victims in every abortion: a dead baby and a dead conscience.”- St. Mother Teresa of Calcutta
