Parent Sessions

These tools will help you gather your parents (separate from their children) so they can form community with other parents, be coached and formed, thoughtfully reflect, and share their wisdom with each other.

Growing Up Catholic Parent Conversations

Gather your parents for faith-sharing and conversation about life and faith.

Here is a great way your parish or school can accompany your parents as they fulfill their important vocation. Help your parents enter into meaningful conversations about how their faith informs their parenting and way of life and connect with other parents. In our experience, when you gather parents to discuss issues such as these, it's hard to get them to stop talking!

The Catholic Way

Sessions for praying, learning, and living the faith.

It gives you everything you need to lead an engaging group experience: background information, step-by-step instructions, talking points, discussion questions, and handouts to send home. • With imprimatur.
