     About the prophetic role that Christians are called to: the first great insight I was exposed to was last Sept.  We were at the Homeschool Mass for the beginning of the school year.  The priest gave a WONDERFUl homily on the role of mothers.  He said we are all exercising our prophetic call, because prophets instruct: "Go this way, and not that."  The homeschooling mother does this all day, every day: academically, morally, spiritually, culturally, and beyond.  He blessed us and asked the Holy Spirit to direct the direction we gave to our children.  I have called upon that memory many times this school year. . .
