About Us
“Eight maids ‘a milkin’” was a joke we often heard in childhood. We grew up on the family dairy farm with our six other sisters. Our Catholic faith was central to our upbringing, from our Catholic school days to our family rosary every night, we knew it was special.
Many years later, we still marvel at the mysteries of our faith and set out on a mission to share it with others.
CATHOLIC
Catholic Country Chronicles is rooted in our Catholic identity.
COUNTRY
We believe that our rural background shapes how we view the world around us.
CHRONICLES
Storytelling is the way that Jesus Himself moved hearts. We use our stories to speak to the hearts of our readers now, to help them see the relevancy of the Gospel message.
We are excited to share how the Lord is working in our lives and hope that a story or two will resonate with you.
Leah
Leah Brix is a co-founder of the Catholic Country Chronicles Ministry, and the published author of St. Joseph’s Hammer, and A Catholic Mass Prayer Journal. She is deeply passionate about the Catholic faith and dedicated to making it accessible and meaningful for everyday people.
Leah and her husband, Adam, are raising their 9 young children out in the country. She finds time to write in the margins of her day- during nap time, in the car at karate practice, or on the sidelines of a soccer field. Through her words, she hopes to paint a message of hope in her readers' minds and hearts.
Abby
Abby is a co-founder of the Catholic Country Chronicles Ministry. As a former music educator, she has a deep love for music ministry. She sings professionally for weddings and funerals, in addition to leading praise and worship at events throughout the diocese.
Abby is a wife to Dylan and mother of two beautiful girls and currently pregnant with their third little one. Blogging and podcasting has become a fond way for her to share her Catholic faith while being able to stay home and care for her children. When she isn’t on a walk around the neighborhood, she is inviting a friend over for a playdate. Abby loves to host and keeps her coffee pot on standby!
Hannah
Hannah Molitor is from central Minnesota, where faith, family, and agriculture have shaped who she is. Raised alongside her seven sisters on her family’s dairy farm she now works with dairy farmers across Minnesota, building relationships and helping farm families make confident decisions for their herds.

Through podcasting and writing, Hannah hopes to create space for honest conversations about faith, friendship, agriculture, and the beauty found in everyday moments. She is passionate about sharing stories from rural life that remind people that ordinary work matters, and that God often meets us in the most simple and unexpected places.
