Mealtime Matters - 25 Pack

Mealtime Matters, an attractive, full-color handout from Loyola Press , informs parents of the benefits of eating together and offers parents positive suggestions on how to make it a positive experience. The message is set within the real-life context of the dinner table. But at the heart of this message is the Church’s family meal: Mass and Eucharist.

The lessons learned over green beans and spilled milk—forgiveness, community, responsibility, a sense of belonging and love—have meaning as we come to the table at the altar. A commitment to breaking bread together at home easily translates into a commitment to sharing the Eucharist together at Mass.
