During the Covid-19 precautions, Catholics all over the world are being affected. As we cannot gather in groups, we must find ways to continue with our faith journey at home. There are so many resources available and so many ways to still be connected to the Catholic community, many right now that are being offered totally for free! So here is a round up of home resources for Catholics to use during the Coronavirus shut downs.

I am wondering if anyone is looking ahead to All Saints Day party ideas, that are safe during a pandemic? Of course we can have an outdoor costume contest/parade, but are there other ideas for fun, socially distant activities? I am hoping to run an essay contest, where kids can write about someone who is holy (saint, family member, etc.).
