Marriage and Family Resources

There are so many Catholic resources out there for pre-marriage, marriage, and families (your family begins the moment you get married)! This is definitely going to be a constant work in progress. As the list grows, we pray that you won’t be intimidated by it all, as we once were by how much is out there. See it as a blessing! Our faith has such a rich depository to choose from that can speak to each of our unique circumstances, needs, and seasons. So don’t feel like you have to be involved in everything here to have a fruitful journey! We are firm believers that when you’re heart is open to the journey, God will lead you to what will help you each step of the way. For us personally, we find ourselves diving into different prayers and resources depending on our season.

If you have any resources, prayers, devotions, etc. that you’d like to share, we’d love to post it here!

Elizabeth Clare Blog

Elizabeth Clare Blog

We stumbled upon this ‘die hard Protestant’ (her words!) turned Catholic blog by a lovely woman named Elizabeth Clare who clearly loves her faith! She has created a TREASURE TROVE of resources for Catholic families that we highly recommend. There you can find anything from information of all the different Catholic Homeschool schools and programs out there, to creative gifts for dad and the kiddos, to very honest and transparent thoughts on topics like mass expectations when going to church with your little ones, to ideas on how to live out the Catholic liturgical year in the home, to at-home Catholic library suggestions…and so much more! We’ll be pinning her blog as a featured post just because all the amazing resources she’s put together - for free!

The Wisephone

As we think about the future parental decisions we’re to make for the newest addition to our family, one thing we agreed on is to give our kids not-so-smart phones. There are so many options out there, but the Wisephone is one that we have our eyes on. Stealing from their features/comparison chart, features include: porn free, complete parental insight, call and message visibility, location tracking and a wonderful list of no’s - no ads, no social media, no ‘Big Tech’ spying. Below is an interview on Pints with Aquinas with the creators.
