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.

Adoremus books is having a sale on these.

Plus code AOB88 for additional 10% off and free shipping.

My kids are much younger, so I don't have personal experience with them.

We love them even though the punctuation drives me batty. My 9 year olds have been reading them, and I have seen their positive influence at work. An example, one boy asked if we could pray the rosary before dinner (we don't pray it regularly) like St. Vincent de Paul's family.

If you end up getting them and want the study guide that Elizabeth mentioned in her book, I'll be happy to send you mine. We're done with it.

Blessings,
Betsie
