My Dear Parishioners,
This past Sunday at approximately 4:24 am, as we all slept and the North Pole tilted closest to the sun, we began the first day of summer.
With our solar season of summer calling for relaxation, our challenge is to use the summer deepening our family’s connection with God through rest and intentional time together. One way to do this is through conversations with God in prayer.
This can be as simple as praising God in the morning and thanking God at night.
Morning Prayer:
• Stick a Post-it note on the bathroom mirror (which your children use) that says, “Thank you, God, for this new day!”
Evening Prayer:
• When you tuck your children into bed, bless them with holy water. Dip your thumb into holy water and trace a cross on their foreheads with the words, “God bless you and keep you from harm.”
Children love family rituals and prayer rituals are powerful because they help them develop a closer relationship with you and with God.
