My name is Barbara Graver. I’m a Catholic writer, etsy shop owner and mom to three grown up sons and one wild but lovable Border Collie.
I enjoy reading, writing, publication and graphic design, flea market shopping, walking and hanging out with my family. I collect books and vintage religious items.
I’ve written several novels over the years, though not published any as of yet, and keep an active multimedia blog on spiritual warfare and our Catholic faith. In my spare time I design Catholic booklets and prayer cards for my Etsy shop.
I studied art and design at our local community college and have a BS in Nursing from Misericordia University.
I’ve worked as a waitress, receptionist, carnival concessionaire and registered nurse. After going back to school for graphic design, I worked in the graphic design department of our local newspaper. Currently, I keep busy with my writing, media and online shop.
I’m a member of Our Lady of Mt. Carmel Catholic Church, the American Holistic Nurses Association and the Catholic Writers Guild. I have recently begun to attend our local SSPX chapel and am applying myself to learning more about traditional aspects of our Catholic faith.
I was deeply involved in the New Age and occult before coming back to the Church and have shared on that topic both in my blog and on YouTube. My podcast New Age To Catholic focuses on this exclusively.
My Upcoming eBooks
I’m currently working on my first Catholic friendly paranormal novel, Haunting at Mayfield, and have posted a condensed form of my testimony, New Age To Catholic, here and on my blog.

My Etsy Shop
I started Catholic Book And Card in order to sell printable Catholic prayer cards, prayer pamphlets and related items I had begun to design for myself and friends during the COVID19 lockdown. It’s my intent to also make upcoming ebooks available through the shop.
