The Young Family School of the Heart is a process of cultivating domestic churches through learning communities. These learning communities are small groups of 5-6 couples who strive to intentionally grow as disciples of Christ, practice core family virtues and create communal space to be real with one another.
Every month participants will learn and practice actionable insights and principles in the following intertwining faith dimensions:
Relationship with God
Relationship with partner
Relationship with kids
Relationship with the Church
How: Each learning community will:
meet and share during monthly 90-minute virtual meetings or 120-minute in person (October 2023 - May 2024)
reflect on and practice relational skill sets (1 hr/wk)
mutually support fellow members in fostering a way of life that integrates prayer, honest communication, and good parenting
attend Mass or serve together periodically
Who: Any couple desiring to learn how to integrate faith and family life. We recommend couples participate together, but welcome single parents. We ask for all participants to be committed and attend almost every meeting.
