This is the story of the mother of the Lefebvre Family — the mother of Archbishop Lefebvre — told by her spiritual director. Family tradition records that she would only embrace her new-born children after their baptism, at the same time invoking their destiny.
Thus, after the baptism of the future Archbishop, she said: "He will have a great role to play in Holy Church, at Rome, near the Holy Father." "
It is by sanctifying myself that I will obtain... the graces to sanctify my children. Education — above all maternal education — is in fact much more of an outpouring of the soul than a syllabus for a teacher."
While describing her strong commitment to the ordinary way of salvation, the author also reveals some of what is known about her extraordinary mysticism as a stigmatist in a very active life.
