Sofia and James Bilder
Bio:
Through the intercession of the Blessed Mother, James and Sofia Bilder came together in the Sacrament of marriage. James grew up in the Catholic Church and leaned heavily on his faith as he entered a military/law enforcement career. Sofia stumbled into the faith in her search for answers to life’s big questions as well as a loving husband. They both realized God and the Catholic faith were the unshakeable foundation upon which to build their relationship. Small everyday miracles guided these pilgrim hearts together. They continue to grow in their faith and lives, constantly turning toward Mary in an old Catholic tradition of the rosary and the Pilgrim Virgin. “The family that prays together, stays together” is a staple in their home and growing family. They now lead the St. Paul Marriage Prep Ministry and actively participate in the Ambassadors of Mary.
Talk: Pilgrim Hearts
We are all pilgrims in this life, constantly journeying toward the eternal joy of sainthood in the Kingdom of Heaven. Though there are many paths to salvation, most are called to it through the ordinary, everyday, sanctifying work of holy matrimony. Pilgrim Hearts explores the bliss and converting power of marriage as a Sacrament and equips listeners with devotional tools to grow closer to God and each other through prayer to the Blessed Mother.
