Carrie BucaloCarrie Bucalo is an Army wife, mother, watercolor artist, and writer. She was born and raised in Albuquerque, New Mexico. After being sexually abused for eighteen years by her biological father, an active lay minister in the Catholic Church, she ran way from home and joined the Carmelite Monastery of Santa Fe. There she studied the ancient ways of Carmelite prayer and mysticism. For three years she lived in silence and solitude and learned to navigate through the "Dark Night of the Soul," ultimately finding a way to communicate her faith-wounds to others. Her father was arrested for child sexual abuse in 2002, and Carrie became involved in an unbearable court battle that has spanned over two decades and is still ongoing.In 2005, Carrie married Justin Bucalo, a youth minister at a large church in Rio Rancho, New Mexico. They have been married for seventeen years and have six children. Justin joined the United States Army in 2010, and the couple loves moving around the world with their family, as they serve their country. In 2010, Carrie founded the website, www.healedbytruth.com, to share her essays, The Spiritual Journey of Healing, and to promote faith-healing for abuse survivors and their families. For the past two decades, Carrie has advocated for the spiritual needs of abuse survivors in the Catholic Church, and she writes for the bestselling Magnificat. Read More Read Less
