Parent Discipleship Days

Supporting parents as the primary educators of the faith.

Parents are the first and most important teachers of the faith. Long before a child enters a classroom or prepares for a sacrament, faith is formed at home – through conversation, prayer, example, and daily life.

Parent Discipleship Days are designed to support and encourage parents in that mission.

These experiences create opportunities for parents to:

Grow in their own relationship with Christ
Connect with other Catholic parents
Reflect on the challenges and joys of raising children in the faith
Learn practical ways to bring faith into everyday family life

Some experiences may connect with larger parish events – such as our Parish Mission – while others are designed around smaller parent-to-parent conversations, reflection, and discussion.

Whether gathered in a large parish setting, a small group, an online webinar, or even briefly during drop-off and pick-up times, the goal remains the same: helping parents grow as disciples while supporting one another in faith.

We know many parents feel like “parking lot parents,” constantly moving from one activity to another. Our hope is to meet parents where they are - creating simple but meaningful opportunities to encounter Christ and connect with others in the midst of busy family life.

Building the Catholic Family Life You Actually Want to Live

Family life is busy. School. Work. Homework. Practice. Dinner. Laundry. Church. Another practice. Another meeting. Sometimes it can feel like we're simply trying to get everyone where they need to be – and then doing it all again tomorrow.

But in the middle of all that busyness, what kind of Catholic family life do you actually want to build?

Our first in-person Parent Discipleship Days are an opportunity to slow down for just one hour and think about that question alongside other parents.

This is for PARENTS ONLY. No children. Need childcare? See below.
