Hi all! Next month for the year of the Domestic Church that Bishop Joe has initiated, the theme is prayer in the home. We need your help to show what prayer in the home looks like!
It can be an altar that you have made during COVID, it can be a wall of crosses, it can be a video or picture of your family watching/participating in Mass, it can be a video or picture of your family saying the Rosary and so on!
If you are able to help show us your prayer life in your home, please send the following to Rachel Vaughn at rvaughn@staustin.org...
1. Your last name, how many are in your family (currently living with you, those you have raised and have left the house, room mates, future spouses, and animals count too!)
2. A video or a picture of you participating in prayer in your home.
3. A little bio of how your spiritual life has adapted to COVID, what you look forward to when we can return to some normality, and any blessings that you are counting currently.
4. Any thing else you would like to share!
The more entries we get, the more we get to highlight each week! Thank you SO much for being part of the Domestic Church and St. Austin's!!
On Sunday, December 27, 2020, Bishop Joe Vasquez is asking us to celebrate the Feast of the Holy Family of Jesus, Mary and Joseph and the Inauguration of the Year of the Domestic Church in the Diocese of Austin.
Throughout the next year, we will focus on twelve monthly themes with accompanying resources. No matter whether your household is a home of one person or a family of many, we are all called to bear witness to and share the Gospel with our families and within our households. These monthly themed items will be ready to for parishes to utilize, implement or share on the first Monday of the previous month.
May we experience the merciful love of God throughout the next year as we grow in faith in our household, personal and parish family.
