As we emerge from the pandemic, parishes have an incredible opportunity to connect the domestic church with the wider parish community. How can we honor the experiences families have had over these many months while inviting them back to the parish? In this practical guide, diocesan and parish leader Denise Utter presents an uplifting, fresh, and flexible approach to faith formation based on the experiences of real Catholic families who have been engaging faith in a whole new way. Each section offers church teaching and questions for discussion with a path to reinvigorate faith formation in a way that fits your parish needs.
