Forming disciples is important to us.
Without the Eucharist and a sense of God’s mercy and love., we can easily flounder. Attending Mass is one of the foundations of our faith. At Mass, we recieve the gift of the Eucharist, one of Jesus' ways of connecting with us in a deeply profound way, and hear God's Word with our brothers and sisters in the faith. In Reconciliation (confession) wSacrament of Reconciliation we see God’s love through his mercy and receive the grace necessary to overcome even the most dreadful challenges.
Prayer is an act of faith and is the basis of our relationship with God. Prayer does not have to be complex, it can be as simple as saying just one Our Father. By challenging your child/ren to pray every day it will help them to form into the kind of person that God is calling them to be, whatever that may be.
God has given you the great gift of family! Honest conversations about things that matter can go a long way in setting your child up for success in life. Ask questions, and share bible stories together. If you need help in having these conversations, rely on a bible like, The Catholic Children's Bible, or The Catholic Youth Bible from St. Mary's Press. Know that we are praying for you and your children as we make this journey together.
