Welcome to my blog! My name is Cassandra Henry and I am a Dominican American living and working in Abu Dhabi, UAE. I was born and raised in The Bronx, New York and I am passionate about my Catholic faith. It has always been a part of my identity. Growing up in a strong Catholic Latino household and living in a city where there is a vibrant Catholic community, I never considered intentionally sharing my faith with those who have different beliefs.
It wasn’t until I moved to Abu Dhabi that I was presented with challenging situations, where I had to navigate how to express my authentic Catholic self in places dominated by different perspectives. These experiences strengthened my relationship with God and it was then that I realized my calling to be a missionary. I’ve learned (and I’m still learning) to find ways to be a living testimony of my faith and show God’s love through my actions.
This inspired me to start this blog. I wanted to share my experience and how the Lord guides me as I encounter circumstances that challenge me to grow and rely more on Him.
This blog is about stepping out in faith and being unapologetically Cassandra. Be ready for stories about my Catholic faith, my journey to marriage and motherhood, and my pursuit of becoming the best version of myself.
I am so grateful to have you on this journey with me. God Bless You.
