Love Your Children

We need to manifest God’s love especially to our children. It is the simplest and most powerful way to pass your faith along to them.

When married couples and their children show their human and supernatural affection for one another, they personally encounter Jesus Christ, who has said, ‘Believe me, when you did it to one of the least of my brethren here, you did it to me.
– Javier Abad and Eugenio Fenoy, Marriage: A Path to Sanctity

The family is also a school which enables men and women to grow to the full measure of their humanity. The experience of being loved by their parents helps children to become aware of their dignity as children.                                                                             – Pope Benedict XVI
