These short, practical booklets feature topics that help parishioners celebrate God’s presence in their midst-through prayer, the Bible, companionship of the saints, and living God’s reign, or through spiritual practices such as the examination of consciousness, meditation on the suffering of Christ, and praying together as a family. Each booklet is ideal for use in the home and is meant to be shared with family members, allowing faith to be passed along. Available in English and Spanish.
