Building the Domestic Church
The ministry of Building the Domestic Church exists to help families welcome Jesus ever more fully into our homes and our hearts. This year’s Building the Domestic Church program is called, “Family Kerygma and Sacramental Grace.” Kerygma is the Greek word for Gospel. This year’s program will focus on the saving Gospel of Jesus Christ and how the sacraments bring His salvation to us!
Building the Domestic Church is perfectly sized for families with children and teens. It’s perfect for seniors and singles who want to use the materials as a basis for Faith-sharing and Faith-growing in small groups. Last year ninety families attended Building the Domestic Church sessions! (Some of our sessions counted 200 attendees!)
This year, Building the Domestic Church will be a hybrid program. Our right-sized book lessons will be supported by short, web-based teachings, some of which will be taught by Father Gary himself. Our participants will be supported by one-on-one accompaniment with program catechists. Every participant will be part of the community. Later in the year, if conditions allow, we will be offering optional in-person events, too.
