One of the good things that came out of the Pandemic was the realization of the importance of nurturing the Domestic Church. We were all forced to stay home and learn together. This was a blessing in disquise. Even though it was a hard time, I will treasure those memories we made together when we watched Mass on TV, took long walks looking for pet rocks, planted a garden, and played lots of games together. We thanked God for keeping us safe. We prayed for an end to the pandemic. We became stronger in our faith. Our Domestic Church grew! I hope yours did too. The Domestic Church is your family! It's where you learn who God is and how we should live our lives. Over the next few weeks, our new families will be given the supplies to make a home altar! This is an EXPLORE FOUR opportunity for families with children in Children's Faith Formation or Confirmation preparation. This is a great way to grow in your faith.
