The Triduum of the Fall: All Hallows’ Eve, All Saints’ Day, & All Souls

What are Family Workshops?

We want to help you live your faith at home, or in other words, we want to support your “domestic church”. The book “Living the Seasons” has been popularized within the niche Catholic market space as families have discovered its simple yet beautiful suggestions for bringing the liturgical calendar to life in their homes. And lucky us, we have author, Augusta D’Ambrosio living here in Dallas! Augusta will be leading these workshops to help our families prepare for, celebrate, and participate in the liturgical seasons of the Church.
