Moms Group: Book Discussion

All Moms (new moms, grandmothers, young mothers) are invited to a book discussion group on Fridays at 9:30 am in FEC 216. Beginning on Sept. 9, join us as we delve into Danielle Bean’s Momnipotent: The Not-So-Perfect Woman’s Guide to Catholic Motherhood. Please purchase the book prior to the group meeting (available on Amazon and Ascension Press). For more information, contact Retzel O’Brien at 850-501-7301.

Is being a mother what you thought it would be? The exhaustion, monotony, mounting unfinished projects, a loss of a sense of self … Too many moms do in fact feel disillusioned. Maybe you feel you’ve been sold a bill of goods, that success and happiness are not possible through the vocation to motherhood. With great wit, wisdom, and compassion, Danielle Bean provides much-needed encouragement to all women and beautifully resonates with their feminine hearts.

Catholic App for Family Catechesis

Laudate includes many awesome resources such as an interactive Rosary, Daily Readings, the Liturgy of the Hours, the Roman Missal changes, and the NAB and Douay-Rheims versions of the bible – all in a simple to navigate layout. But what makes this app shine for me is the HUGE selection of prayers – in both Latin and English!

They are sorted into intuitive groups such as the “Marian Group” and “Mass Group” and you can even create your own folder of “My Prayers” to easily access your favorites. The font size and color scheme are customizable, and there are six language options. The developers are also constantly updating this app, providing a huge selection of up to date, bug-free content.
