Art Of Catholic Mothering
Price: $13.75 ORDER HERE - ORDER INFORMATION
Maura Koulik, Ed.
STK# 8173

Catholic child rearing as told by twelve experienced Catholic mothers. - How does a Catholic mother instill the Faith in her children? How does she deal with issues of education and discipline? How does she maintain her own faith in the face of life's challenges? To answer these questions, editor Maura Koulik has gathered the stories of twelve Catholic mothers. With grace, honesty, and humor, these mothers tell of their struggles: Gathering their children for the rosary, persevering when money and support are scarce, finding solid Catholic education, surviving personal tragedies, and living a fully Catholic life in the post - Vatican II era. The experiences of these women will inspire all readers, not just mothers! Particularly important for any husband who is determined to place the Church and his family at the center of his life. Typical testimonials: "I love this book. Right after I read it my husband read it cover to cover in one sitting; he couldn't put it down!" - Home schooling mother in Texas. "The book was fantastic, so inspirational! The only problem was that I kept crying!" - Mother of two in Connecticut. 112 pp.

Christ In The Home
Price: $19.75 ORDER HERE - ORDER INFORMATION
Fr. Raoul Plus, S. J.
STK# 8128

Ideal for the engaged, marriage instruction classes, and for those married many years. This guidebook to finding a happy marriage, keeping a happy marriage, and raising happy children has been out of print for over 50 years. Loads of practical and spiritual advice on family life and raising children that will never be outdated because the principles are as timeless as human nature and virtue. Dominicana stated in 1751:
This is a work that fulfills the needs of the marriageable and the married - it not only unveils Christian Marriage in its majestic supernatural setting, but it is also a solid psychological guide to a tremendously successful married life. Fr. Plus points out, that "supernatural love, far from suppressing natural love, makes it more tender, more attentive, more generous; it intensifies the sentiments of affection, esteem, admiration, gratitude, respect, and devotion which constitute the essence of true love.
A series of meditations grouped under four general sections: Courtship, Marriage, the Home, and the Training of Children. His section on imparting sex knowledge to children will be helpful to parents faced with this complex problem and duty.
It is sad to know that many young Catholic couples entering marriage today will never enjoy the happiness of true love because they are tainted with worldly ideas on marriage culled from the mass media. Fr. Plus strikes at the root of these evils by presenting Marriage in its true light as a sacrament.

Integrity Magazine
STK# 6721

The role of fatherhood — Catholic fatherhood — has been diminished in three ways. First, it has become smaller. Fewer things are defined as a father’s distinctive work. Secondly, fatherhood has been devalued. Third, and most important, fatherhood has been decultured – stripped of any authoritative social content or definition.
The question is, “What do fathers do?” The tragedy of our society is that it can’t answer the question and neither can most Catholics. Forward - thinking Integrity Magazine gives answers:
• Men, Mary, and Manliness
• The Family Has Lost Its Head
• Economics of the Catholic Family
• Afraid to Marry?
• Glorifying the Daily Grind

“For quite a few years now, Angelus Press has been bringing forth one edifying book after another… For a number of reasons, this current project is one of its most enriching contributions to our Catholic culture a very happy choice, and especially appropriate to our own present situation.”
Gleaned from the same INTEGRITY magazine series from which three previous INTEGRITY volumes have been printed (selling into over 10,000 homes), the 16 chapters of Motherhood and Family can be summarized in the following cut lines. If any of these hit home, ladies, Motherhood and Family is talking about it with you.

Avoid the discouragement of reforming your husband according to your ideas of (feminine) holiness.
Multiply the spiritual goods coming from homebirth and breastfeeding.
Debunk worldly notions of love and romance for your growing girls.
Use the watchwords of common sense and courage to help your family.
Invite poverty to be a necessary part of your Family Rule.

Understand the similarities between marriage and consecrated religious life which advance holiness.
Prepare for the end of active motherhood and the beginning of a gracious old age.

Is It A Saints Name

Rev. William P. Dunne

This little booklet helps you sort through these choices by presenting over 3,000 names for boys and girls including the saint whose name the variant (if applicable) is derived from and the feast day of the saint - so you know when to celebrate your child's name day, a Catholic custom that previously was more important than one's birthday!

Some Notes for the Guidance of Parents

Take it from Mother Prioress Marie-Johanna of the traditional Teaching Dominicans (Post Falls, Idaho) who reviewed this book for Angelus Press:
I enjoyed it thoroughly. The principles of education and human nature, etc., and the consequent necessary measures and directions to take are clearly outlined, and excellent. I even laughed out loud, sometimes, as the author describes society, reactions, and situations for instance "contempt for motherhood" on p.15 with great perception and humanness. I certainly will recommend the book to parents. Thank you for bringing it to my attention.

“How do you solve a problem like Maria?” answered
Mother Janet Erskine Stuart, head of the order (1914) of the girls’ Teaching Sisters founded by Mother Madeleine Sophie Barat and brought to America by St. Philippine Duchesne, wrote this definitive book on the accommodations necessary to be made in methods of educating Catholic young women. Favored by the female Franciscans of Catholic Tradition. Mother Stuart says:
• "[We insist on] the teaching of handicrafts, training of the senses in observation. Development of knowledge, taste, and skills which are useful for life, and for girls especially on things which make the home."
• "Domestic occupations form in girls a habit of decision from the necessity of getting through things which will not wait….There is something in the material duties of home which heal and calm the mind and give it power to come back to itself….The work of the body is good for the soul; it drives out silliness as effectually as the rod….It is a great weapon against the seven devils of whom one is Sloth and another Pride."
• "The best mental development is accomplished under the stress of many demands. A touch of hardness and privation gives strength of mind and makes self-denial a reality; a little anxiety teaches foresight and draws out resourcefulness…."
• "When girls have by themselves brought to a happy conclusion the preparation of a complete meal, their very faces bear witness to the educational value of the success. They are not elated nor excited, but wear the look of quiet contentment which seems to come from contact with primitive things. This look on a girl’s face give a beauty of its own, something becoming, and fitting, and full of promise."
• "The services which are the foundation of all home life are in themselves the same in all places and times. There is in them something almost sacred; they are sane, wholesome, stable, amid the weary perpetual change of artificial additions which add much to the cares but little to the joys of life."
Wonderful womanly wisdom. Chapters on: • Religion • Character • Realities of Life • Lessons and Play • Math, Natural Science, and Nature Study • English • Modern Language • History • Art • Manners • Higher Education

"The most important person on earth is a mother. She cannot claim the honor of having built Notre Dame Cathedral. She need not. She has built something more magnificent than any cathedral--a dwelling for an immortal soul, the tiny perfection of her baby's body . . . The angels have not been blessed with such a grace. They cannot share in God's creative miracle to bring new saints to Heaven. only a human mother can. Mothers are closer to God the Creator than any other creature; God joins forces with mothers in performing this act of creation . . . What on God's good earth is more glorious than this; to be a mother?"
--Joszef Cardinal Mindszenty
The author of this book is the inflexible hero of Catholic resistance against godless Communism and state absolutism in Hungary. Born March 29, 1892, in Csehimindszent, Hungary, and ordained a priest in 1915, he was arrested in 1919 and again in 1944. He was appointed primate of Hungary in 1945 and made a cardinal in 1946. Refusing to permit Hungary's Roman Catholic schools to be secularized by the communists, he was arrested in 1948 and convicted of treason the next year. Sentenced to life imprisonment, he was freed in the Hungarian Revolution (1756). When the communists regained control, he sought asylum in the U.S. Embassy in Budapest and lived there for 15 years, refusing Vatican requests to leave Hungary. He relented in 1971, settled in Vienna, and was involuntarily retired as primate of Hungary in 1974 by the post-conciliar Church.

The most valiant of all women is the Blessed Virgin Mary. Although this virtue is most manifest as a gift of the Holy Ghost, it is also manifest in the daily trials of the soldier of Christ who conquers inordinate self - love with God's grace.
The valiant (strong) woman does not have to be a St. Joan of Arc, but she must rule well her home in prudence, mercy, justice and truth. In Proverbs 31, the Holy Ghost Himself describes the "valiant woman."
This book is an extended version of discourses delivered to married women. Each address begins with a theme drawn from the final verses of the similitudes of Solomon. Landriot then explains the moral of the passage with a practical brilliance that could only come from a confessor whose heart was well seasoned in discerning the particular characteristics and maternal predispositions of the feminine soul. What emerges is an achievable ideal for every truly Catholic woman. Not one page fails to demonstrate what grace, what beauty, and what joy supernature can bring forth in the life of a woman called to the vocation of Christian motherhood.

The Catholic Origin of Just About Everything
Unearthing the present and forgotten Catholic roots of what we say and do in everyday America
Page after page on the surprising Catholic origin of just about everything in holidays, entertainment, plants and animals, politics, and the English language. Not written specifically for traditional Catholics, but an impressive body of fascinating study proving the indelible yet often unrecognized mark of Catholic belief in the present-day world, even in non-Catholic societies like the US, which resonate with the influence of Catholic ways and words:
• The seven black spots on a LADYBUG symbolize the Seven Sorrows of Our Lady • “GOODBYE” is an Old English variation of “God be with ye” • GROUNDHOG DAY comes from a Candlemas tradition • CHAMPAGNE pioneered by Benedictines • St. Augustine, Father of SNACK FOOD • THE TRINITY on the dollar bill • The game of LA CROSSE is derived from the French missionary word crozier
An interesting thing happens when you read this book. All of a sudden, you become aware that the littlest and most common things and events of the day are echoes of the Catholic Faith and spark your recollection. What a find! Worthwhile table-talk.
