Quote: The Good Shepherd and the Child: A Joyful Journey

In the introduction of The Good Shepherd and the Child: A Joyful Journey:
Every action a parent does to or with the child, however mundane it may seem, is truly education. All that a parent is becomes a powerful influence in the child's present and future formation. Parenting is a ministry or "service to life," as Silvana calls it. In her view, each parent has the dignity of being the "original and irreplaceable" person in the child's religious journey.
