Oh, Dearest Mother, Sweetest Virgin of Altagracia, our Patroness. You are our Advocate and to you we recommend our needs. You are our Teacher and like disciples we come to learn from the example of your holy life. You are our Mother, and like children, we come to offer you all of the love of our hearts. Receive, dearest Mother, our offerings and listen attentively to our supplications. Amen.

I am in a book club for hs moms and need to choose a book. The moms are all different - Catholic, Mormon, Christian, etc. I would like to choose a book that will feed souls, not just be good reading. Any suggestions?

Having a Mary Heart in a Martha World by Joanna Weaver is a really good one! It's not Catholic, but my Catholic Mother's Ministry studied it one semester last year and it made for some good discussions!

Make Room for God: Clearing Out the Clutter by Susan K. Rowland is also good for discussions, and you get rid of extra junk in your life as you read.

I've been given a lot of recommendations for The Help by Kathryn Stockett. It's fiction, so it might be better suited for a non-spiritual group. Another option would be to revisit a classic, such as To Kill a Mockingbird.
