Catholic Parent Know-How - Faith-Filled Summer Activities

Product Description

The year has a rhythm, just like a workweek, just like every day. Summer, for many families, is filled for the most part with days that are anything but lazy. Still, for most, summer is a different kind of busy.

School is out for most kids. Summer block-busters are released at the movie theaters. Family vacations (simple and not-so-simple), family reunions, holiday celebrations -- all these and more make summer a unique time for fun and, believe it or not, spiritual growth.

This small resource will help you capitalize on summer's special opportunities to combine wholesome fun with a tune-up of sorts for your family's spiritual health. Holiness, properly understood, is nothing short of happiness and healthiness in their truest sense. Real happiness and total health -- physical, mental, spiritual, and emotional -- are God's most universal call to all persons. Most of us live out this call with our families, and summer is a season when family time is often cranked up a notch.
