Mathetes Award

Michelle at Dei Gratia chose me for the Mathetes Award. I am very touched by this award, as I feel that my vocation as homeschooling Catholic mother calls me specifically to be a disciple of Jesus Christ. So, from the bottom of my heart, thank you, Michelle.

Mathetes is the Greek word for disciple, and the role of the disciple (per the Great Commission) it to make more disciples. So the rules for accepting the award are such: Winners of this award must pick five other "disciples" to pass it on to, and provide links for (1) the originator of the award (Dan King of management by God), (2) the person that awarded it to you, and then (3) name and sites of the five people that you believe are fulfilling the role of a disciple of Christ.

I read more than a few blogs every day and there are many more than five women whom I believe to be disciples of Christ, but I can only pick five.

Jane at Building the Ark

Kimberly at Catholic Family Vignettes

Alice at Cottage Blessings

Kristen at Small Treasures

Cheryl at Time Really Does Fly

These women all have a quiet spirit of discipleship that seems to come so natural to their vocation as devoted Christian mothers.
