Until I Rest in You: A Mass Journal for Catholic Moms

By Ginny Kochis

Motherhood is beautiful. It is also really hard. Not even Mass is the same: before kids, you could hear the homily and surrender yourself to Jesus. After kids, you're bouncing babies, shushing toddlers, and managing sibling squabbles before the Penitential Rite begins. (And man, are you gonna need it.) While St. Augustine wasn't a mother, he understood the inmost desire of the human heart. It is a yearning all too familiar to those of us raising children: the desire to rest, to be at peace, and be fortified for raising saints.As a mom to three exceptional children, Ginny Kochis knows the struggle well. She created Until I Rest in You as a resource for Catholic moms longing to engage fully with the Mass. Inside, you'll find the full text of each Sunday's readings, plus weekly feast days and encouraging quotes. Suggestions for prayer, personal reflection, and meditation accompany the readings, followed by simple ideas for liturgical living.
