Browsing through a bound volume of the 1920 Parent Browsing through a bound volume of the 1920 Parents’ Review, I was surprised and delighted to come across a loose leaf of paper. It was a letter from Henrietta Franklin to the members of the PNEU urging them to spread the word about the organization.

Although the PNEU no longer exists, the five suggestions given by Mrs. Franklin are surprisingly relevant. They include arranging meetings where people can hear about the principles and getting local teachers interested in the method. My favorite, however, is number 4:

“Arranging Reading Circles and Discussion Meetings when the books of the Founder of the P.N.E.U., Miss C. M. Mason, and the pamphlets published by the P.N.E.U. can be read and discussed.”

This last suggestion can be applied as written even though a century has passed. Charlotte Mason’s books and many of the pamphlets are available on the Charlotte Mason Poetry website for free. We also have a reading schedule to get through the volumes in 2 years. All that is needed is what Mrs. Franklin asked for: people to organize meetings and invite newcomers to attend. Will you heed the call?

“Her pleasure in the walk must arise from the ex “Her pleasure in the walk must arise from the exercise and the day, from the view of the last smiles of the year upon the tawny leaves and withered hedges, and from repeating to herself some few of the thousand poetical descriptions extant of autumn.”

~Jane Austen, “Persuasion”

For many years I have been influenced by the life For many years I have been influenced by the life and teaching of Evelyn Underhill. She lived from 1875 to 1945 and during that time she touched so many lives that she is now commemorated on June 15 in the liturgical calendar of the Church of England. The prayer book says that her “most valuable contribution to spiritual literature must surely be her conviction that the mystical life is not only open to a saintly few, but to anyone who cares to nurture it and weave it into everyday experience.”

Especially significant for me is that she pointed to the spiritual life as the key to unity among Christians. According to Robyn Wrigley-Carr, “Prayer was viewed by Evelyn as the essential ingredient of ecumenical unity… Evelyn believed that a widespread group of praying souls was essential for church unity: the Church would win the world for Christ only through ‘living spirits steeped in prayer’.” I think about this whenever the Charlotte Mason community brings together believers from so many diverse backgrounds and traditions.

Even so, for some reason Evelyn Underhill seemed to me to live in a different time and place from Charlotte Mason. She was a light in my own spiritual journey, but a separate and distinct one.

That all changed just a few months ago when to my utter astonishment I learned that Evelyn Underhill had been the keynote speaker at the 20th annual PNEU Conference in 1916. The original text of her lecture was preserved in the Parents’ Review. Thanks to the work of our transcription team, we’re able to bring it to you today.

Charlotte Mason believed that the intellectual life is not only open to a privileged few, but to anyone who cares to nurture it. She believed the same of the spiritual life. In that critical notion, Mason and Underhill overlap. The result is “The Education of the Spirit,” a wonderful and inspiring piece that I hope will touch you as much as it touched me. Find it at the profile link.

At the end of my recent pregnancy and into postpar At the end of my recent pregnancy and into postpartum, I read “Michael’s Gentle Wife” by Karen Andreola. It was exactly what my heart needed. A gentle, wholesome story of faith, marriage, and the beauty of everyday life. Perfect for that tender season when your energy is low but your soul craves encouragement. 

Highly recommend as a comforting, nourishing read for new moms or anyone who needs a peaceful story.
