Do you have a deep desire to pass on your faith to your children?

The spiritual head start you pass on to them is your joyful example, the virtues you form, and your home life enriched by prayer and reliance on the sacraments.

A loving family catechesis on the sacraments is a must if children are to understand that the seven sacraments are the great point of Catholic distinction. Through them, you will nourish a vibrant, living faith that will guide their every move, their every decision in life.

Drawing on his expertise in character and faith education, Andrew Mullins provides a practical manual for passing on a great love for the sacraments, those great channels of grace that sustain us through life. Ultimately, he writes, children will love what we love.
