We've all been there at some point in life-- we go to Mass regularly and faithfully, but we don't "feel" like we get anything out of it. Why go? Fr Zach Schaefbaurer answers this question. His answer might just surprise you.

In this episode, we dive into meaningful ways to bring the celebrations of All Saints Day (November 1) and All Souls Day (November 2) into the heart of the home this month. These two feast days offer beautiful opportunities for families to connect with the rich tradition of honoring saints and remembering loved ones who have passed. (If you're still fuzzy or unsure about Purgatory--see my resources below. We got you! & Your loved ones! :) )

These resources will also help you this month. Especially on the topic of Purgatory.

This week Fr Tony Klein is on Living LIT to share his vocation story and his love for Liturgy. What is Liturgy and how can we incorporate it more into our life? Fr Tony, like all priests and most of us-have very active and full lives and schedules. It is possible to "Play hard & Pray hard" and live a life that flows from the Mass. Fr will give us some practical tips to help us center our life around prayer and Mass, so we can live out of that.
