The most important celebration takes place every Sunday - our incredible Mass.
(Remember, the Mass is NEVER ended; we continue to live the faith and celebrate at home!)
You probably celebrate Christmas, Easter, even St. Valentine's Day, St. Patrick's Day, and Halloween. But did you know that becoming aware of, and even celebrating, religious traditions can help your whole family slow down, reflect, and grow?
Those cold, dark days of winter are considerably brightened by Christmas parties, St. Valentine's Day and St. Patrick's Day celebrations.
Lent is usually a time when we are aware of the sufferings of Jesus; at Easter we celebrate the triumphs of Jesus. Those are times for us to reflect on our own trials and celebrations as well.
What about the everyday lives of Jesus and his followers? They were just like we are, and we learn about the ups and the downs of humanity during Ordinary Time.
Following the liturgical calendar can make each and every day a reminder of the importance and the wonder of living a Catholic life. Are you ready to get started? It's easy. The websites listed in the drop-down tab under the Celebrating At Home tab will give you many ideas for how to commemorate and celebrate special times.
If you are new to all this Catholic partying, don't worry! Just reminding your family of a special day is often sufficient.
