The purpose of Family Day is to promote and strengthen all families and the parish family. It is an opportunity to hold up the sacredness of the family even in the midst of the mess that it often is . It is an opportunity to celebrate and cultivate appreciation for the gift of family as well as provide formation for the growth of families in y our parish. It is also a chance to allow families to joyfully interact with one another in connection with the Sunday Mass and in the context of the greater parish community.
