“Countless women today long to be nurtured. They want the love and acceptance of a mother or a mother-substitute. They want to feel the warmth and security of an older woman’s approval. And countless women of faith throughout the world today are the embodiment of these and other virtues that equip them to nurture younger women. But they don’t know how to do it. The eighteenth century poet and historian, Matthew Arnold, said: ‘If ever the world sees a time when women shall come together purely and simply for the benefit and good of mankind, it will be a power such as the world has never seen.’” (Spiritual Mothering, pgs. 42-43)
