From EWTN about Saint Angela Merici:
"Angela's methods were far removed from the modern idea of a convent school; she preferred to send her associates to teach girls in their own families, and one of her favorite sayings was, 'Disorder in society is the result of disorder in the family'. It was by educating children in the milieu in which they lived that she strove to effect an improvement in social conditions."
"Beware of trying to accomplish anything by force, for God has given every single person free will and desires to constrain none; he merely shows them the way, invites them and counsels them." -- Saint Angela Merici founder of the Order of Ursulines
I believe every homeschooling mother could say she has certainly experienced such truth.

I like the saying about disorder.
ReplyDeleteSo who IS the patron saint of homeschooling moms?
I needed to read that quote today. We're playing "catch up" and it's been a struggling day... so thank you!
