Each month we will provide activities for your family to live liturgically and celebrate our Faith! Each of these activities will bring the Christian Year into your home life.
What does living liturgically look like? It means being aware of the rhythms of the liturgical year by allowing them to saturate your daily life. It includes many types of activities that allow us to spend Holy time with our families throughout the year. It can look like any and all of the following activities:
The liturgical year isn’t meant to stress you out, add more to your full plate, or overwhelm you. It’s not a burden. Don’t stress if you can’t get to something!
It’s also important to remember that observing the liturgical year in your daily life will be specific to your home and family. Liturgical living is not a to do list, it’s a turning toward holy time, a daily conversion about our Faith.
