Family Resources
The FAM (Bulletin Insert)
Every parish in the United States and Canada will have access to download and print a monthly bulletin insert. This will be a taste of what will be found on the online version and can be a valuable tool for a parish to support families and marriages.
The FAM Magazine
Our monthly online magazine is a centerpiece of our digital evangelization efforts. The magazine will be crammed full of useful articles for families and marriages in all stages. It will be a combination of both serious and light articles, video blogs, and themes chosen to inspire and challenge.
A feature article each issue will highlight a nationally recognized personality sharing the joys and challenges of their marriage. What sets this magazine apart is our commitment to dealing with real issues and real struggles that marriages and families today face.
Additional RESOURCES: In addition to the resources listed above, we also will offer several books on spirituality, marriage, dating, adoption, and even some fiction to help individuals and families grow closer to Christ and the Church.
Parish Missions:
Too many parish missions attract only a small demographic of parish life. Catholic FAM offers parish mission experiences with the entire family in mind. All ages and stages of life are welcomed. You will laugh, pray, grow, and experience God’s mercy and peace through the challenging messages and deeply personal stories.

CatholicFAM offers a three-day mission designed specifically for the entire family. We engage audiences with humorous and impactful stories and the simple truths that make faith relevant and accessible.
What makes our missions different?
What to Expect
The first evening will focus on trusting God, which for most of us is easier said than done. We will dive deep into the fears and challenges in our life that prevent us from letting God lead us. We will go beyond the masks that we sometimes wear and look at ourselves through the lens of God’s adopted sons and daughters. We will also focus on prayer as the foundation to authentically trusting God’s love and mercy.
How did you catch your faith? The second evening will focus on the relationships we share. We cannot do this alone. To become the saints we were created to be requires us to lean on one another and to be Christ to everyone we meet. To do that takes courage and the willingness to forgive ourselves and others. Simply put, we are called to be missionary disciples.
Follow-up
We are committed to encouraging families and marriages well beyond the three days of the regional missions. Every family will be given a Faithful Family workbook that will help families and couples explore the topics at the heart of the mission and the themes of prayer and worship, formation, community, and service. In addition, families will have access to all of our online material designed to help families and marriages grow closer to Christ and His Church.
