It's not a secret that I LOVE the Saints. I love using the Saints when I teach my kids the Faith, because it is literally the easiest way to SHOW them what it looks like to follow Jesus.
I also love reading about the Saints on my own.
In particular, I love Saints who were mothers. And so, to celebrate the launch of a new season of the Catholic Sprouts Podcast (listen here: https://catholicsprouts.com/podcast), I'm counting down my top Mom Saints and sharing an invaluable lesson I learned from each.
6. St. Marguerite D'Youville: Babies and Mission
5. St. Monica: How our children can be transformed by our sacrifice.
4. St. Clotilda: The Quiet Witness of a Mother.
3. St. Margaret Clitherow: Living life so well that I can challenge my children to follow in my shoes.
2. St. Elizabeth Ann Seton: Drawing all the strength I need from the Eucharist.
1. The Blessed Mother: Remaining joyfully obedient.
