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.

Hi all, I have not been able to post on this board for years, due to a computer glitch that I hope now is gone! Anyway, I have had my eyes on this curriculum http://www.christianbook.com/Christian/Books/product?item_no =86337&netp_id=524026&event=EBRN&item_code=WW&view=covers. We've been reading the Schuster Bible History aloud and my younger kids especially my 7 yo are very interested in learning about the Holy Land. The curriculum looks great. It doesn't look fundamentalist to me. Has anyone tried this program who can give me some feedback?

Thanks!

I just received this book. I've used her first volume and it is wonderful. This is one of the spines for the Serendipity Continent study this fall....

We just started this last month and really like it. We're still on the first section (Turkey) but my boys have learned so much already. I like the way the lessons are set up and I like having the students keep a travel journal. I haven't used the first volume but would like to go back to that one when we finish Volume 2. I was afraid that it would be too young for my 14yo, but he seems to like it too- he hasn't been exposed to much of the holy land geography but is interested in it.
