Reflections of Family and Faith
"The family that prays together stays together." - Venerable Patrick Peyton
In this week’s episodes of “Catholic Central,” we tackle what defines being Catholic, the Sacrament of Confirmation, the Real Presence of Christ in the Eucharist, marriage and Anointing of the Sick. And Kai wears a horse head and dresses like a priest (but not at the same time). Today, you might be surprised to learn “What’s Catholic.”

Return to the Church | Strengthening family unity
Dear Friends, today we remember my dear departed cousin, Judy Belanger Snell. Judy’s amazing grandparents lived the Catholic faith with a boldness that is often lacking today. Judy and I shared them with more than one hundred grandchildren and great grandchildren. I only hope and pray that some of their boldness has rubbed off on me and my generation.

Great news, friends! Since we cannot gather in person for our CatholicMom Day of Mercy later this month as we originally planned, we have a series of free webinars planned in its place! Beginning April 21, CatholicMom Days of Mercy will feature a wonderful line up of presenters who are excited to connect with you and share ideas and inspiration focused on the theme of mercy.

Seasonal Reflections | Why pray?
The resurrection of the Lord is so important that we celebrate this whole week as one Easter day and then we will continue to spend the 50 days of Easter time, until Pentecost. We are not just looking at a pretty picture or retelling some fable. Rather we are talking about the central event of all human history.

Evil exists. We all know that. But with Christ’s Church on our side, we’re never alone in the fight.

Celebrating family life | Strengthening family unity
These past few weeks have felt a bit like a movie in the making – surreal at moments. I go to bed and wake up the next day thinking maybe it’s all a dream. I then walk down the stairs to our fireplace room where my husband has the television ready to “watch” daily Mass and I am starkly reminded – it is not a dream. It is very much our new reality.
