Breakout Session:

Building a Family Culture

This breakout session includes practical ways for incorporating the liturgical year into family life; into meals, prayer, work, and play. It also includes a simple worksheet for couples to assess in practical ways how to do this better. In Elizabeth and Nathan’s experience, a lot of young and even middle-aged couples are building from scratch, and struggle with how to successfully build a family culture centered around the Catholic Faith. The Schlueter’s have been blessed with a lot of good examples of how to build a family culture and hope you’ll join them to learn more!
