Catholic Mom Summer 2024 Family Book Club with Colleen Pressprich: Week 4

Catch up with author Colleen Pressprich in the final week of the Catholic Mom 2024 Summer Family Book Club.

A Catholic Mom Book Club for the Whole Family

This summer, we're excited to bring you a family-friendly book club cohosted by our own Allison Gingras and a longtime friend of Catholic Mom, Colleen Pressprich. We’re featuring both Marian Consecration for Families with Young Children and Colleen's newest offering, God the Father’s Love: A Journey Through Scripture for Catholic Families. And we'll be praying together to consecrate our families to Jesus through Mary as we explore these books each week.

In our Week 4 session, Colleen and Allison discuss "The Father Calls You His Children" from God the Father’s Love; Colleen walks through the process of reading a selection from the book, pausing, and then discussing the conversation starters with children. They also talked about beginning our prayer with praise, and various ways to pursue Marian Consecration. Be sure to follow along with Catholic Mom's Marian Consecration on social media!

Catch up on this week's episode!

About the Books

God the Father’s Love: A Journey Through Scripture for Catholic Families uses Scripture to invite and encourage children to learn more about God and to feel free to talk to God and about Him. Each day's illustrated entry focuses on one aspect of God's love, offering a Scripture passage emphasizing God's love and a brief reflection bridging the gap between Scripture and our own lives. Daily conversation starters and a brief prayer complete each entry.  

Marian Consecration for Families with Young Children enables families with children ages 3 to 7 understand and grow in their faith and in Marian devotion. Daily entries include inviting art, questions to discuss together, and reflections about the lives of Jesus and Mary. Prayers and Scripture readings are interspersed throughout this book. We've scheduled this Book Club to conclude in time for you to begin a Consecration ending on September 15.
