Parish leader zoom discussion about implementing family models of formation. Below is a document with links to the resources mentioned and contact information for the presenters. Recorded June 30, 2020.
A note to parish leaders from the Division of Catechetical and Pastoral Formation:
As parents shift into new roles at home, we can shift into the role of coach. Encourage parents, and be confident that they can share the Faith with their children. This is what they promised at Baptism; they can be sure of God’s help, as well as yours.
First and foremost, pray together. For those new to family prayer, here are some ideas.
