How do you turn your home into a place where saints are made? By practicing the “little way” of family life at home, every day.
St. Therese of Lisieux’s “little way” shows us that we can achieve holiness by performing even the smallest acts with great love. For the family, every day is made up of many, many small acts – feeding hungry tummies, comforting a feverish child, getting a squirmy toddler dressed for mass – and in each one we have the opportunity to practice mercy and be a living example of how to love and follow God.
The Corporal Works of Mommy (And Daddy Too) gives parents practical suggestions, tips, and ideas for ways to practice the corporal works of mercy in the home, and reflection questions for delving deeper into the topics. Each chapter also includes a prayer for God’s guidance in our pursuit of the “little way” of the family. Let God set your family ablaze with his love when you practice The Corporal Works of Mommy (And Daddy Too).
