| | Welcome to Karen Andreola's Mother Culture Website |
 | | This is her favorite message to give, as the joys and advantages of Mother Culture overflow into the family circle. |  | | The Madonna, [mother with her children], no matter out of whose canvas she looks at you, is always serene. |  | | To partake in Mother Culture is to feed herself with the Word of God, with ideas from books, nature, art, music, etc., thus taking care to keep growing spiritually and mentally. |

 | | Not only did they read and hear the Gospel in their mother tongue, they were set free to express their joy in the Lord, their worship of God in their mother culture. |  | | As it is right of all peoples before God to have the Bible in their mother tongue, I firmly believe it is their right before God to live out the Good News in their mother cultural framework. |  | | Since that is true, then it must also be true that for a people to fully express themselves in the living out of their life in Christ they must be able to do it in the context of the culture in which they have been born and raised, their mother culture. |

| | Mother Culture |
 | | So many mothers say, "I simply have no time for myself!" "I never read a book!" Or else, "I don't think it is right to think of myself!" They not only starve their minds, but they do it deliberately, and with a sense of self-sacrifice which seems to supply ample justification. |  | | Then, when her children come to that most difficult time between childhood and full development she is nonplussed; and, though she may do much for her children, she cannot do all she might, if she, as they, were growing! |  | | And we must not say "I cannot." Can any of us say till we have tried, not for one week, but for on e whole year, day after day, that we "cannot" get one half-hour out of the twenty-four for "Mother Culture?"--one half-hour in which we can read, think, or "remember." |

 | | More than 3,000 years ago, a coastal town served as the center of a "mother culture" that shaped societies in a wide swath of what's now southern and central Mexico. |  | | Using the data from their analyses, the researchers traced the movement of pottery goods and found that communities everywhere imported pottery that originated in San Lorenzo--defined by the cultural style called Olmec--but that San Lorenzo didn't import any ceramic goods in return. |  | | The new results challenge the view that Olmec-era societies in Mexico traded goods back and forth as "sister cultures," contributing about equally to the spread of pottery-making techniques and symbolic designs.--B.B.
