Heart Wreaths at the Family-Based Gathering on Jan. 28
This Family Gathering shown in the collage is one of 3 times that the families who are doing the family-based option for Rel. Ed. at BKT Parish come together for prayer, etc. The theme was "Love God with your Whole Heart".. About 75-80 people came and shared in a reflection on the Our Father, a scavenger hunt in SC Church and discussion about what is found in a Catholic Church. It ended with families working on Heart Wreaths for shut-ins, etc and praying for those who would receive them. It was a wonderful and prayerful experience.
