Dear Christ the Redeemer Faith Families,We hope you are all faring well and staying healthy on this sunny Sunday! We certainly missed gathering together for Mass and Faith Formation this weekend, but we would like to offer you a couple ways in which you can keep the Sabbath holy and pray with your family at home.
First, Fr. Joe and Mari put together this BEAUTIFUL Mass podcast that you can listen to in whole or in part at this link: https://www.buzzsprout.com/931729/3006958 (Next week we might even be live streaming! So stay tuned!)
Another option is what my family likes to call "Home Church." When we have one or more children sick at home I will usually tip-toe out of the house early in the morning to enjoy a blissfully peaceful Mass with no children in tow and will bring back consecrated hosts for my little home bound sickies - but "officially" blessed bread is not a necessity to share this beautiful family prayer when you are all stuck at home.
Below is a link to a little printable communion service we put together to assist in praying our ancient sacred prayer together in your home. We encourage you to let your CHILDREN lead the prayer! It's such a joy to hear them speak the familiar words we hear at Mass each week. You may also find the link on our website at www.ctredeemer.org
So, let us know how this works for you. You are invited to post photos of your family praying together and creative ways you are keeping the sabbath on our Facebook page at https://www.facebook.com/ChristTheRedeemer.LakeOrion/
Wishing you health, peace and joy!
Lisa Brown and our Office of Family Ministry Staff: Gabriela, Leah, Ann, Michele, Karen, Lisa & Jason
