A mother's day is full of housework and child care, a father's day is made of commuting and meetings. What little time there may be is quickly absorbed by story-time, PTA meetings, and the countless other activities of family life.
How, then, can a mother or father find time to pray, to praise Jesus, to grow in faith? How can we teach our children to live our faith, if we seem to have no time to live it ourselves?
The book is in two parts, followed by a number of resource lists.
Establish a family altar and nightly prayer routine.
Discipline your children with the eyes of the Blessed Mother and Our Lord.
The Catholic Mother's Resource Guide is a small book, just the right size to slip into your purse or coat pocket, but it is packed tight with great ideas. A great place to start and a wonderful resources of new ideas for more experienced moms.
