Gospel for All Ages
“Thy word is a lamp to my feet and a light to my path.”
-Psalm 119:5
Families will gather monthly for grade-level, lectionary-based catechesis,
followed by family-group discussions and liturgical activities
to provide the cornerstone of lifelong growth in our rich Catholic faith.
Simple weekly lectionary-based lessons are provided to families
to complete at home between the sessions.
Service projects are also a component of our family program.
Here are some other program details.
- Families will be placed in groups and will meet monthly at the parish.
- Monthly In-Person Schedule
* Opening: 15 minutes
* Break-Out with Catechists by grade levels: 60 minutes
* Families’ Group: 30 minutes - Families will accompany each other in faith sharing and prayer through interactive and engaging group activities during each session.
- At-home family Bible reading and discussion using the Gospel Weekly resources provided is expected each week between sessions since families are the center of living faith (CCC 1656).
- Service projects are a separate monthly component that is provided for families to be the hands and feet of Jesus in tangible ways. This is a vital component of living our faith as Eucharistic people as we intentionally “go forth to love and serve the Lord.”
- Additional GRACE Events will also be offered.
