Catechetical Sunday

Today we celebrate Catechetical Sunday, when the Church asks each of us to reflect upon how we hand on the faith to others and be a witness to the Word of God.

This year, the Church meditates on the theme, “This is my body given for you” (Luke 22:19).

Examples of living the faith daily could include: saying morning prayers with the kids, at home or on the drive to school; kindness to others; service opportunities; volunteering at the Nativity County Fair; teaching Faith Formation; chaperoning Youth Ministry events; lectoring; making the Sign of the Cross as you pass by the church; praising and thanking God for his Divine Mercy, love, and generosity in our lives; and many more.

For more information, please contact Mahalia Marcelin, Formation Director, at (651) 696-5441 or mmarcelin@nativitystpaul.org, or visit the USCCB's website. 

More ways to help you grow in your faith and prayer life can be found at nativitystpaul.org/online-resources, including:

Finally, stop by our Faith Formation booth at the Nativity County Fair! We are giving away free bibles, prayer and meditation books for all ages, rosaries, kids’ faith bracelets, stickers, and more.
