"The poor do not need our compassion or our pity; they need our help. What they give to us is more than what we give to them."Here's a new review of Bringing Lent Home with Mother Teresa from Amazon...
"I love to bring the Liturgical seasons to life in our family. This book does that for the season of Lent. It begins on Ash Wednesday and guides the family through each day. It reminds us that Lent is a period of fasting, abstinence, and prayer. Each day includes a parental reflection, a family prayer, a short story from the life of Mother Teresa, and great idea for fasting and almsgiving. It isn't too wordy or difficult for children to understand. For example, the author suggests for fasting one day, "Ask the children to fast from complaining and grumbling today." And for almsgiving, she suggests, "Encourage the children to pay someone a compliment today." We will use this resource every year."
Thank you very much for your review! God bless you and yours!
