The journey of my mother's silent devotion, sacrifice, and faith—raising many children to become priests and religious while prioritizing her faith above everything else in the world throughout her life—resonates deeply. It makes me reflect on my own life.
I learned about this book through a recommendation from Sisters of the Order of St. Paul who visited the church. Raising four children to become priests??!!!! I was shocked. But I was told there was one more nun among them. I bought this book because I was incredibly curious about what kind of heart the elderly mother had as she raised those with vocations, and how she navigated through those difficult times. Perhaps because I had such high expectations, it wasn't incredibly amazing. She wrote
