In
this joyful and charming book, Maria von Trapp (from The Sound of
Music) unveils for you the year-round Christian traditions she loved
– traditions that created for her large family a warm and inviting
Catholic home and will do the same for yours.
Here
are the songs they sang for feasts and holidays, as well as Maria’s
personal recipes for traditional holiday foods. Here are stories and
games to delight your children, and countless other ways to turn
events such as anniversaries, baptisms, graduations, birthdays,
wedding receptions, and even funerals into feasts celebrated in the
Lord.
Most
people only know the young Maria from The Sound of Music; few realize
that in subsequent years, as a pious wife and a seasoned Catholic
mother, Maria gave herself unreservedly to keeping her family
Catholic by observing in her home the many feasts of the Church’s
liturgical year, with poems and prayers, food and fun, and so much
more!
With
the help of Maria von Trapp, you, too, can provide Christian
structure and vibrancy to your home. Soon your home will be a warm
and loving place, an earthly reflection of our eternal home.
