As one’s children grow, so too should the desire to teach them the Catholic Faith. It is no secret that the best way to pass on one’s Faith to one’s children is to know and live it well oneself. Written by a parent, for parents, Catholic Truths for Our Children uses compelling arguments, Scripture, and personal experience to guide parents to fully understand and embrace their Faith. It is excellent reading for anyone concerned about how to pass on their Faith to their children.
Patti Maguire Armstrong once thought she would never write for religious publications--too boring. Her writing began as a hobby alongside a degree in Social Work and masters in public administration. She worked in those fields for a time before staying home full time to raise her growing family. The writing hobby grew to over 400 published newspaper and magazine articles. She even wrote for the National Enquirer among other national publications. As Patti began to embrace her Catholic faith, it began to change and form her life. Once she gave her gift of writing back to God, to serve Him, the inspiration for her first book took hold. Nine books later, she cannot imagine a more exciting and fulfilling life as a Catholic mom, author and speaker.
Patti met her husband Mark in the Marshall Islands, Micronesia where they were both Peace Corps volunteers. They live in North Dakota and are the parents of ten children, eight boys and two girls, including two adopted orphans from Kenya.
She has authored 9 books, including: Dear God, I don't get it! (Bezalel Books), Catholic Truths for Our Children (Scepter Publishers) as a guide to help parents pass on their Catholic faith, and served as the managing editor and co-author of the Catholic best-selling Amazing Grace book series (Ascension Press). Patti has been a guest on EWTN Television's "Live" program with Father Mitch Pacwa and twice on Doug Keck's "Bookmark" program and on Catholic Radio programs around the country. She contributes articles to the Integrated Catholic Life and Catholic Exchange eMagazines. Her website is raisingcatholickids.com
