Lorianne MacDonnell

Lorianne began her spiritual pilgrimage in Nova Scotia, Canada,  where she grew up with her eight siblings and learned to serve Jesus by the example of her parents who helped spread the message of faith and life through the Pro-life ministry.   

In 1996, after completing a Bachelor of Science in Nutrition and Consumer Studies and  Bachelor of Secondary Education in Canada,  Lorianne was called  to consecrate  her life to Christ in the Regnum Christi Movement.  She then went on to study Theology and Pastoral Ministry at  Mater Ecclesiae in Rhode Island and is presently completing a certification course in spiritual direction. 

This pilgrimage of life has brought Lorianne to work and walk  to with all ages evangelizing in schools, parishes, pro-life centers, camps, and retreats. 

She assists with youth and adult ministry in the Ohio Valley.  In her free time she loves to walk with Jesus and friends on  hikes and pilgrimages.  Her favorite saints are St. Therese of Lisieux, St. Philip Neri, and St. James.
