Living, Growing and Sharing in God's Love



The FAITH FIVE – Faith Acts In the Home

 Each and every night we ask our families to turn off the television, put down the newspaper, log off the computer and invest five minutes – either during dinner or just before the youngest goes to sleep – to do these five simple steps.

1.  SHARE highs and lows of the day.

2.  READ and highlight a verse of scripture in your Bible.  St. John's Weekly Newsletter -- Life Together -- as well as the weekly email provides a "verse for the week."

3.  TALK about how the verse relates to your highs and lows.

4.  PRAY for your highs and lows, for your family, and for the world.

5.  BLESS one another, perhaps with the sign of the cross on the forehead, followed by a kiss.

Practicing the FAITH 5 keeps us connected to one another in our families and to God.  It helps to raise stronger, healthier, happier children and adults.
