You've most likely heard that you are your child's primary catechist and that you are the most important influence on your child's faith life as an adult according to solid research from the National Study of Youth and Religion. The latest research found a few keys to parental behavior that made the most significant impact on whether their kids would remain religious:
Parents who attend religious services regularly and bring their kids to church.
Parents who demonstrate their faith at home (e.g. prayer & service).
Parents who talk about their faith in front of and with their kids.
The Family Advent Workshop gives you a context and structure to do a prayer-based project as a family. Not sure how to pray at home with your kids or how to talk about the faith in a way that isn't awkward? The Manger Project is simple, fun, and gives you an easy and relatable format for witnessing and talking about your Catholic faith at home with your kids; and you don't have to be a theologian for the Family Advent Workshop and Manger Project to make a tangible impact on your family's faith life.
So join us Sunday, November 23rd 10:30am-11:30am in the Parish Center for our Annual Family Advent Workshop. Let's prepare our hearts this Advent for a more meaningful Christmas together.
