Many women today, including faithful Catholics, are ambivalent about motherhood or see it as something that will compromise their careers, lives, and happiness. In Motherhood: An Extraordinary Vocation, Dr. Kathryn Rombs invites women to enter this vocation or reengage with it, newly aware of its meaning, beauty, and power.
Helps new mothers and fathers celebrate God's gift of new life, and introduces them to blessing of the Church through the Blessing of the Child in the Womb.
