Our family has found a "home" in the Brothers and Sisters of Charity. It is a wonderful way to fully live out our Catholic faith. Here is the website with more info: http://www.littleportion.org/vocations/domestic.html<br /><br />It is the religious order founded by John Michael Talbot. I hope that this helps you in your journey. But never forget to turn to God and ask him to help place the right people in your path.Auntie Emhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15155119960245896267noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7653579363795517238.post-41989182391405069342012-04-26T17:24:56.784-07:002012-04-26T17:24:56.784-07:00Agena...I can see how it would be hard to feel lik...Agena...I can see how it would be hard to feel like you "fit" with either group. In my area most of the moms I know are homeschooling moms, but our "circle" of friends also includes moms who send kids to school and those who used to homeschool but don't now either because the kids grew up or went to school. Maybe the homeschoolers in your area would be more welcoming than you think. Certainly co-ops and such are geared towards homeschooling, but we generally welcome any mom to "mom's night outs" or gatherings.<br /><br />Hope that helps!MarieChttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17458004521580842197noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7653579363795517238.post-52088866838623067202012-04-11T17:37:10.026-07:002012-04-11T17:37:10.026-07:00Wonderful story! Thank you for your testimony!
I...Wonderful story! Thank you for your testimony!<br /><br />It seems the homeschooling groups are often, like you said, "...people who had that authentic Catholic flavor in their lives. It was the first time that I had met a group of people who actually knew, embraced and followed Church teaching without exception." I greatly respect the homeschooling groups and families, and yet it's not for me or our family. Surely there are non-homeschooling support type groups out there who are authentically Catholic? I often struggle to find where I "fit in". It's not with the homeschooling groups and it's not with the Cafeteria Catholics. I try hard to live an authentic Catholic life, and it seems hard to find others like me who also live this way, yet are NOT homeschoolers.<br />Any thoughts?Agenahttp://www.facebook.com/OneCatholicMomsMissionnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7653579363795517238.post-42500076366574443142012-04-10T06:17:40.295-07:002012-04-10T06:17:40.295-07:00Wonderful!Wonderful!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7653579363795517238.post-51899669915786775382012-03-27T12:10:47.852-07:002012-03-27T12:10:47.852-07:00Thank you for the beautiful witness!
