Seek ye therefore first the kingdom of God, and his justice, and all these things
shall be added unto you.
HOMESCHOOLING
This necessity for home schooling is not only a natural necessity, it is also a supernatural necessity. The same parents who brought the children physically into the world have a natural obligation, binding in the natural law, to provide for the mental, moral, and social upbringing of their children. However, since God became man, the necessity, and therefore the corresponding obligation, became supernatural.

Heavenly Father, you have given us the model of life in the Holy Family of Nazareth.
Bless our home and our learning rooms.
Teach us to see Jesus in the members of our families, especially in their distressing disguise.
Help us, O Loving Father, to grow joyfully in your ways with all the opportunities that you give and take.
Immaculate Heart of Mary, cause of our joy, pray for us.
St. Joseph, pray for us.
Holy Guardian Angels, be always with us, guide and protect us.
Amen.
