Sunday morning at church-
We had Little Flowers Sunday afternoon. We learned about the life of Saint Bathildis and the virtue of patience. Saint Bathildis had an amazing life story- she was kidnapped and sold into slavery in France and King Clovis II fell in love with her for her beauty and piety and married her making her Queen. The King died when his son was young and she ruled alone for years as the Queen Regent. After her sons were old enough to rule she became a nun and eventually an Abbess and lived her last days in prayer and service. We talked about how her patience and acceptance of her crosses pleased God. Then we talked about Lent and all that we are doing to prepare our souls for Easter joy. :)
Then we went outside and planted little bulbs in pots to learn more about being patient and letting patience bring forth beautiful fruit in our lives.
Then the girls had snacks and played. It was a beautiful day to be with our friends.
