GIVEAWAY: Every Moment Holy

“We feel ourselves wounded by what is wretched, foul, and fell, but we are sometimes wounded by the beauty as well, for when it whispers, it whispers of the world that might have been our birthright, now banished, now withdrawn, as unreachable to our wounded hearts as ancient seas receding down some endless dark.”

—Douglas McKelvey, Every Moment Holy: Volume I

GOOD MORNING, PEEPS.

Remember how last month we did a giveaway for absolutely no reason? Well, guess what? We’re doing another one for absolutely no reason. (Except for the vibes, of course. And the funzies.)

The only thing you need to do to enter is this:

You’ll be entered into the giveaway when you do.

How to get extra entries

If you’d like extra entries into the giveaway, here’s how you can get them!

• Pledge a paid subscription to All Words Bright & Beautiful (+50 entries)

• Restack this post (+10 entries)

Those of our lovely readers who’ve already pledged a paid subscription are entered into this giveaway and all future giveaways automatically.

We couldn’t make this happen without them, and it is for that reason that at least one of them will be selected as one of the winners of this giveaway, 111% guaranteed.

What we’re giving away

We’re giving away one copy each of Volumes I, II, and III of Every Moment Holy by Douglas McKelvey, published by .

These are books of prayers and liturgies to highlight the holiness of “every moment” in everyday life.

This incredibly popular series has sold over 600,000 copies and won awards and stuff. Here’s the blurb for Volume I:

EVERY MOMENT HOLY is a book of liturgies for the ordinary events of daily life—liturgies such as “A Liturgy for Feasting with Friends” or “A Liturgy for Laundering” or “A Liturgy for the First Hearthfire of the Season.” These are ways of reminding us that our lives are shot through with sacred purpose even when, especially when, we are too busy or too caught up in our busyness to notice.

Conclusion

This giveaway will run for four weeks, until Wednesday, July 29, 2026 AD.

On that date, we’ll announce the giveaway winners (who will be notified by direct message as well) and will begin dispatching the prizes to the winners’ addresses.

Thank you

To everyone who took the time to participate in our last giveaway, thank you.

Our giveaway post got 400+ likes and 150+ restacks, which is the highest number of either we’ve gotten for any article we’ve ever posted. Thank you.

A huge, huge thank you especially to those of our beautiful, intelligent subscribers who’ve pledged a paid subscription. I wouldn’t be doing giveaways like this if it wasn’t for these incredibly talented and well-adjusted individuals:

If my thanks for these people were a liquid, it would fill sixty-five lakes, three puddles, and one halved and pitted cherry.

That is how thankful I am for them.

Congratulations

Big congratulations and felicitations to the winners of our last giveaway for 3 beautiful, hardcover copies of Malcolm Guite’s Galahad and the Grail:

Completely coincidentally, all three of these winners happen to be individuals who pledged a paid subscription to All Words Bright & Beautiful.

While the drawing is random, this seems to prove incontrovertibly that the fairy godmothers and angels in Heaven smile down upon all those who pledge a paid subscription to All Words Bright & Beautiful.

I’m not going to tell you what to do, my friend. But I will suggest it very subtly.

I am extremely subtle. It is my middle name.

Good luck and Godspeed

Let the contest commence! Good luck, and may the odds (and the fairy godmothers) be ever in your favor.

Okay, bye-bye now.

May God bless you and keep you.
