It has often been said, “Little children, little problems, big children, big problems.” How true! Although little children can be exhausting, parents have a great deal of control over their safety and well-being. When  children become adults, parents have to let go of that control.  

A parent’s job often becomes more difficult, as their adult children face major decisions – what work to  pursue, to marry or not, who to  marry, how to raise their own  children, whether to continue to  practice the faith in which they were raised.  

The book Praying for Our Adult Sons and Daughters, written by local authors John and Therese Boucher, will be the inspiration for a new group that we will soon be starting at St. Peter’s.  Together we will share conversation and prayer for our adult sons and daughters.
