Summer Updates and News Construction of the Museum of Family Prayer in Easton, MA is complete! The Museum is a contemporary experience that engages people in the history and power of prayer and depicts the inspiring story of Venerable Patrick Peyton. Catholic Central won the Catholic Press Association First Place Gabriel Award for the episodes: The Mass, Catholic Dating, and Life After Life. Catholic Central is a video series that offers entertaining and authoritative answers to your questions about Catholic thought, spirituality, and practice. This is the second year in a row the series has received this honor. Share www.CatholicCentral.com with your family and parish! CatholicMom.com's podcast Catholic Momcast celebrates our one year anniversary of providing Moms engaging conversations around family, faith, and fun. HCFM staff served the spiritual needs of young people at World Youth Day in Panama. We engaged people in questions about the Catholic faith and distributed over 10,000 Rosaries. Family Theater Productions has developed a study guide and curriculum to complement the The Dating Project film. This is an incredible, free educational tool focused on building strong relationships.

The Impact Your Support Provides At HCFM, we have no greater purpose – or joy – than developing an enduring passion for prayer and spirituality among families. We believe prayer and spirituality are at the core of developing strong, united families that are a source of strength for the Church and our world. Here's the impact your support provides in the words of a few of those whom we serve.

“Catholic Mom brings me hope and encouragement as I live out my vocation as wife and mother.” Jennifer Haffey Catholicmom.com Subscriber

“Holy Cross Family Ministries has helped us to start praying together as a family, working and planning together and respecting one another as husband and wife.” Marriage Enrichment Participants (photo to the left), HCFM East Africa

“You guys are AWESOME, and these videos are absolutely fantastic! Nothing quite like it out there...I'm a theology teacher, and these videos are a huge blessing for my students.” Andrea Fredrickson, Catholic Central Viewer

What's ahead?

Continuing Venerable Peyton's Legacy and Supporting Families in Faith

The Museum of Family Prayer will open on September 15, 2019! We invite you, your family, and friends to visit us this fall in Easton, MA. Experience an interactive, engaging journey through the history of prayer and the inspiring story of Venerable Patrick Peyton. This is an experience unlike any other and all visitors receive free family prayer kits to encourage them to immerse themselves in prayer and deepen their faith. Visit www.MuseumofFamilyPrayer.org to learn more. The Catholic Family Life Symposium is a gathering of theologians, social scientists, and pastoral ministry professionals at the University of Notre Dame. The Symposium will explore critical questions about Catholic family life and develop programming recommendations to help HCFM and other Catholic organizations advance our missions. HCFM is partnering with the Pastoral Solutions Institute, the Our Sunday Visitor Institute, and the McGrath Institute for Church Life to support this important gathering taking place in July. Our film, "Pray" will be released by Family Theater Productions in early 2020. The film tells the inspiring and powerful story of Venerable Patrick Peyton. The film will engage thousands in the incredible life of Father Peyton while encouraging families to pray together, which we believe has transformative impacts on family life. We encourage you to watch the film's trailer at www.Praythefilm.com Summer Impact Update
