St. Elizabeth Ann Seton

Today the Church recongnizes the life and work of Elizabeth Ann Seton founder of the Sisters of Charity, the first American religious society. We find in Elizabeth great joy in the beginning of her life and marriage. A protestant (Anglican) at first being converted in Pisa, Italy after the untimely death of her husband.

As a homeschooling family, as many other homeschooling families in our group, the Seton homeschooling program, and the teachings and discipline of that program, have been a source of great encouragement and hope for us. It is with great respect and honor that we pay tribute to this remarkable woman today.
