The Domestic Church Celebrates: The Annunciation: A Feast Day for Family Life

By Catherine Fournier

We have so much to celebrate in our faith, so much to be thankful for, for much to give praise for, that it can be hard to know where to begin! "The Domestic Church Celebrates" offers ideas and inspiration for celebrating the Feasts of the Church in your family. This series presents suggests family-focused celebrations of name-days, special feasts like Pentecost, and the many feasts of Mary with suggestions on how to celebrate a feast day at home, age-appropriate descriptions of the feast and related Church traditions, and family activities, crafts and recipes to get your planning started. The Feast of the Annunciation was historically seen as the true beginning of the new year, and placed as it is in early spring, it's easy to see why! It's a good time to start some seeds for your garden, spring-clean some closets and donate to a charity, and while doing so, teach your family about the great gift of the Incarnation and the wonderful example of Mary, our Mother.
