Anne DeSantis looks at simple ways families can naturally weave prayer, Catholic culture, and spiritual formation into busy summer days. Discover fun, simple ways to keep your kids' faith alive this summer through prayer, exploration, and the creation of a Catholic atmosphere at home. Summer is that beautiful time of year when backpacks are emptied, schedules loosen up, and kids finally get space to run barefoot, sip lemonade, and explore. It’s also a season when faith life can unintentionally “go on vacation.” Without school rhythms or parish programs, weeks can slip by without much spiritual structure. Yet summertime is full of moments that invite wonder, gratitude, and connection to God. With a little intentionality, families can actually find that summer offers fresh opportunities to nurture faith in simple and joyful ways.
