Growing up in Texas, as a young adult she was attracted to the secular environment around her, the worldly ambitions and superficial ideals of happiness and accomplishment. For Catherine, a happy and fulfilling life meant independence, a successful career, a colorful social life, frequent travel, and marriage to the perfect man.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">After graduating from the University of Texas, Catherine took a position in public relations in downtown Houston, eventually joining the PR team at the headquarters of a leading computer company \u2013 her dream job. But despite having the successful career she\u2019d always wanted, deep down, Catherine knew that was something was missing. Even after moving to London, England, where she could see St. Paul\u2019s Cathedral from one of her office windows and Big Ben and the Houses of Parliament from the other, where she could spend time with a vibrant group of friends and travel easily across Europe, and where she found a boyfriend who took her to see the Queen, and who treated her like a queen, Catherine\u2019s restless heart remained restless.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">She knew that God was calling her to something much different than the life she had always imagined for herself.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP\/\/\/yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.regnumchristi.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/catherine-with-godson-300x199.jpg\" class=\"alignright size-medium wp-image-27977 lazyload\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"199\"><noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright size-medium wp-image-27977\" src=\"https:\/\/www.regnumchristi.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/catherine-with-godson-300x199.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"199\"><\/noscript>\u201cOur Lord was merciful with me. He let me suffer an immense emptiness and solitude so that I would look for him,\u201d says Catherine, who realized that her search for happiness in her own worldly interests was leading to deeper and deeper unhappiness. \u201cI knew in my heart that only God\u2019s will would make me truly happy, and I couldn\u2019t give up my search until I found it.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Catherine took a three-month sabbatical from her job in London in order to pray, reflect, and discern what God\u2019s will for her life might be, and went to visit her sister, Mary, in Atlanta, Georgia, and it was here that she encountered Regnum Christi. Through Regnum Christi, Catherine began to discover Jesus Christ as a <span class=\"s1\"><i>person<\/i><\/span> for the first time in her life, through the Gospels, through the Eucharist, through personal prayer, and through witnessing lay RC members living their faith in an enthusiastic and authentic way. \u201cI found in Christ a true friend, and in experiencing his love and mercy, I fell in love with him,\u201d says Catherine. \u201cThis encounter with Christ gave me the strength to want to live my faith, and everything started to fall into place. My restless heart was finally resting in him.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP\/\/\/yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.regnumchristi.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/solemn-blessing-200x300.jpg\" class=\"alignleft size-medium wp-image-27971 lazyload\" alt=\"\" width=\"200\" height=\"300\"><noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft size-medium wp-image-27971\" src=\"https:\/\/www.regnumchristi.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/solemn-blessing-200x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"200\" height=\"300\"><\/noscript>Immediately, Catherine joined Regnum Christi, where she instantly felt at home. \u201cThis is the mission my heart had been longing for,\u201d says Catherine. Shortly afterwards, while on retreat in Rome, Catherine attended the Papal Mass in St. Peter\u2019s Square, and heard a clear call in her heart, through the words of Pope John Paul II: \u201cBe not afraid \u2013 go and preach Christ in the streets, plazas and rooftops!\u201d Catherine knew at once that Christ was calling her to leave everything that she had at one time thought would bring her happiness, and let him be her only love. In 1996, at the age of 32, and 10 years into a successful international career in communications and marketing, Catherine consecrated her life to God as a Consecrated Woman of Regnum Christi.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Over 25 years of consecrated life, Catherine has worked in catholic education; spiritual and apostolic formation of youth, young adults, and women; and various evangelization missions with youth and families in the U.S. and abroad, however, over the last decade, God had a mission for Catherine much closer to home: she spent the last 7 years at her home in Austin, Texas, taking care of her elderly parents, who have both recently passed away. In 2020, Catherine returned to community in Houston, Texas and is now residing in Chicago.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Catherine celebrated 25 years as a Consecrated Woman of Regnum Christi with a Mass and Solemn Blessing in Houston, and for her, having the ceremony in Texas was like a blessing of those years she had spent in service of her parents:<\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP\/\/\/yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.regnumchristi.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/with-monica-trevino-200x300.jpg\" class=\"alignright size-medium wp-image-27965 lazyload\" alt=\"\" width=\"200\" height=\"300\"><noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright size-medium wp-image-27965\" src=\"https:\/\/www.regnumchristi.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/with-monica-trevino-200x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"200\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.regnumchristi.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/with-monica-trevino-200x300.jpg 200w, https:\/\/www.regnumchristi.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/with-monica-trevino-683x1024.jpg 683w, https:\/\/www.regnumchristi.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/with-monica-trevino-768x1152.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.regnumchristi.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/with-monica-trevino-1024x1536.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.regnumchristi.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/with-monica-trevino.jpg 1365w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 200px) 100vw, 200px\" \/><\/noscript>\u201cIt was a wonderful gift to be together on such a joyous occasion with my family, friends<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0 <\/span>and the many Regnum Christi families that I had worked with in Houston and stayed in touch with while in Austin taking care of my parents. It was like a heavenly blessing \u2013 a sealing \u2013 of the time in Texas that I gave in ministry work and in the special mission of family caregiving. I\u2019m grateful to God for my vocation and<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0 <\/span>to my Houston community of<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0 <\/span>Consecrated Women who wanted to celebrate and give closure to my decade back in Texas.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">During those 7 years she spent in service of her aging parents, Catherine encountered a great number of people who, while intelligent, thoughtful, and sincere, no longer believed in the existence of an objective truth, and therefore struggled to discover and understand the full meaning of their lives, and their own identities as children of God. Witnessing this struggle ignited Catherine\u2019s interest in furthering her own understanding of classical philosophy as a grounding in perennial wisdom and intellectual discipline; as a result, she is currently pursuing a graduate certificate in Christian Wisdom at Holy Apostles College &amp; Seminary. She hopes that her studies will lead her more deeply into the truths and wisdom of the Church so that she can spread the truth of Christ\u2019s love to others. \u201cMy whole desire is to live in the truth of who Jesus is, who he wants me to be for the world, and to help others discover his love.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">How has Catherine\u2019s vocation to consecrated life changed over the past 25 years? That personal relationship with Jesus that originally called her to give her life wholly to him has only grown deeper, her vocation has become more Christ-centered, her response more trusting. \u201cMy relationship with Jesus is why I became a consecrated \u2013 I encountered His love, he won my heart,\u201d says Catherine. \u201cTwenty-five years has been a huge gift, not merited by any means, and it\u2019s only by God\u2019s grace that I am still here, persevering, working and praying that everyone will experience his love and mercy.\u201d<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0 <\/span>Catherine asks for the prayers of her Regnum Christi family that she, and all those called to the vocation of religious and consecrated life, will receive the grace of final perseverance.
