Make a prayer table in your home - Offering a part of our home to prayer can help make our Faith permanent and present in our daily lives. Set up a small table (or even a cardboard box!) with a Bible and candle, then plan a time during the day to pray here as a family. If a sacred image or small statue is available, these can be added as well. However, be careful not to clutter the space. What is most important is that it centers the home and family around God and calls us into deeper prayer every day!

Linked below are various Spotify playlists and account recommendations. Most of these lists are specifically of Christian music. They are for a variety of moods, times, and seasons. A few lists have an asterisk next to them because they have a mixture of music by Christian artists and other artists. Unfortunately you do have to have a paid account to listen to these playlists fully, but you can still look at them to see the artist names and get suggestions even without a paid account.
Lifeteen has quite a few good ones that are tempo/mood based including Hype, Worship and House
Sacred Ordinary Days is a good account to follow for liturgically based music
Sacred Pop - Jeff (our Director of Liturgy) has made this list of music that you might hear at Mass that also has a more pop version
Confirmation Music - music that you might hear at a Confirmation Mass or that is used in reflection preparation time for Confirmation.
Here are some lists that Veronica (our Youth Minister) has made:
This list is what we have used for Sunday YM events. It is a mixture of pop music with a positive message and Christian music.*
This list is made of music that has a very deep message and can be quite heavy (may talk about difficult topics). They are mature songs that are intended to be used to reflect on a particular difficult topic like suicide or drug use.*
