Eight Jesuit missionaries who worked among the indigenous people of Ontario and upstate New York were martyred in the mid-17th century, and canonized in 1930. I was planning to do some research into them in January. But a couple weeks ago, Bonnie Way, a sister lover of Catholic saints, wrote to tell me about her new North American Martyrs Kids Activity Book. It’s primarily intended as a homeschool study unit or other children’s group study. While my childhood ended long ago, it seems like a good way for me to get acquainted with this group. I know Bonnie through her blog posts as a joyful, engaged mom and writer, and I’m looking forward to relaxing and learning with this title.
I’m often asked for spiritual book recommendations, so my website now has a section of titles that resonate with me. See what you think in the Shop section.
