Photo of John Perrottet and his family. John Perrotet, 46, works in the tourism sector in Sydney, Australia, where he lives with his wife Anne and their family. He wrote in 16 February 2004: "Having a large family is certainly hard work, but it is immeasurably rewarding and can be lots of fun."
He also said: A simple fact, often overlooked by many, is that a key to a successful marriage lies in selecting the right partner. The teachings of Josemaría Escrivá led me to take this responsibility very seriously. Living as a student in Warrane College, I was able to mix with a good group of people and I am happy to report that, with the help of St Joseph, I found a wonderful wife - Anne. We now have twelve children ranging in age from twenty one to three. This is my greatest treasure here on earth and one that I would never have thought possible were it not for St Josemaría. It is a direct result of his teachings on marriage as a vocation and on being generous with Our Lord regarding the transmission of life.
With such a large family, there are always challenges, especially when the children are all so close in age. In this day and age, people need to realise that having a large family is certainly hard work, but it is immeasurably rewarding and can be lots of fun.
