20 Strengthening the CATHOLIC FAMILY Through Faith DIOCESE OF PALM BEACH OFFICE OF MARRIAGE & FAMILY LIFE ISSUE 6 MARCH 2015 THE FAMILY FULLY ALIVE BULLETIN An engaging and informative monthly bulletin for your family, the domestic church, from now until the World Meeting of Families. Each month, discover simple ways for your family to Keep it Catholic! Bringing a new Catholic Family Discipleship Challenge and a new Catholic theme each month. Catholic Family Discipleship Challenge # 5 Share Your Story of Faith... Jesus taught by sharing stories. Bring the faith to life by sharing your stories with family, friends & acquaintances. Have you ever felt God s presence in your life? Or had a special encounter with Jesus in the Eucharist? Has God spoken to you through a friend or through the words of a poem or a homily or Holy Scripture? Has God answered a special prayer? Or granted you the peace that surpasses all understanding? Do you know that Children are our future? Marriage is a community of life & love. When spouses become parents, the connection between God s creation & the marriage sacrament is made visible. This connection is like links in a chain that span the generations as each new generation of children grows up, marries and has its own children. Children shape our future just as they are shaped by their families. Catholic parents are called to nurture and usher their children into their faith community s relationship with God. The family becomes a domestic church in which children discover that God loves them & has a special plan for each of their lives. That is why Love is our Mission. Help bring the faith to life by sharing your own story. Excerpted from: Love Is Our Mission. Get your copy at osv.com Keep it Catholic!
