Author looking for large families and their stories

Dear Friends and Society members,

I saw a program on TV that gave me an idea for a new book. The program was on large families (12 or more children). One of the programs featured a Catholic family in Massachusetts; Jay and Janine Gonya. I contacted Janine and she agree to write the story of their lives together, and how living the faith as Catholics has shaped their decisions and the size of their family.

It is my hope that such a book would influence others to live in accordance to Church teaching about being open to life and against artificial contraception.

Do you know of any good Catholic families with 7 or more children? If so, I would like to talk to them about this project. I can be contacted by E-mail at pjpiisoe@earthlink.net or at 760-488-2919.

In Corde Jesu,
