When Moses led the Israelites through the desert, God provided manna for them each day. In that daily provision he was teaching the Israelites to learn to trust him one day at a time (see Exodus 16:4). We are not unlike the Israelites.

In this beautiful desktop flip calendar, author Agnes Kovacs shares daily encouragement, including Scripture and reflections from the saints, all focused on our Blessed Mother. Each day you will find writings to cultivate your love for Mary and to help you grow spiritually.

A daily Scripture study with room to journal and a plethora of helpful tips and tools, this beautifully designed book explores God’s plan for his people together.

This is a journal that asks you to thoughtfully consider your own world and to see how he might be calling you to be his hands and feet in it. It is an invitation to live a life of abundance that is better for being together. ISBN: 978-1-59325-362-2 7 x 10, 144 pages, $21.95, Item# JPF2E9

5 Essential Paradigm Shifts for Parish Renewal Deacon Keith Strohm

If the leaders in a parish want to see renewal and growth, they must be willing to change paradigms . . . • from a culture of engagement to a culture of encounter • from a focus on maintenance to a focus on mission • from an institutional faith to an intentional faith • from programs to people • from avoidance to accountability Fr. James Mallon, author of Divine Renovation, explains that “this necessary change, of course, is one of culture. This cultural change means a deep, deep change. It means . . . a total conversion of our lived values, not merely the stated ones.” Once a leadership team has made these paradigm shifts, they need to create linked processes of strategy, people, and operations so that they create a culture of discipleship and mission, where these principles influence, inform, and guide the actions and activity of the parish. This is where the rubber hits the road. It is critical that there be disciples involved in this process who are committed to evangelization and mission.

Sue Grenough, Series Editor Mark Hart

Many parents bring their children to the Church for the sacraments. From Baptism to First Reconciliation to First Eucharist, these wonderful moms and dads are sharing their faith with their children. Yet over and over, we hear from parishes that the parents themselves need to revisit their own understanding and experience of the very sacraments they are passing on to their children. In each four-lesson booklet, parents are reintroduced to the Lord and his desire to experience a relationship with them, as well as catechetical foundations for their faith. Parents will experience a spiritual renewal for themselves and will be able to engage their children in deepening their encounter with the sacrament in a powerful way. Great for parents and groups.

SUSAN GRENOUGH has worked in the field of catechesis for many years. She has worked as a director of religious education and a Latin high school teacher, in both diocesan and archdiocesan roles. She has served as host and president of the National Conference for Catechetical Leaders. Though retired, Sue continues to do workshops around the country, to minister on her parish’s formation committee, and to write articles. She currently facilitates The Virtual Learning Community for Faith Formation and consults with diocesan offices of catechesis around the country.

Finding a Loving God in the Midst of Grief Susan M. Erschen

“Susan Erschen masterfully integrates the emotional and spiritual dimensions of the grieving process. She provides practical recommendations for individuals working through grief, prayers that help the reader give language to the complex emotions that accompany the grieving process, and relevant wisdom from saints and sacred Scripture. This book is a wonderful companion for Catholics who are grieving a significant loss and wish to process that loss in the context of their faith. Erschen correctly asserts that each person has his or her own way of grieving—no two paths are the same. She avoids telling the readers how they should feel, but instead offers a sympathetic and comforting voice while giving readers the space they need to make their own unique journeys. I highly recommend Finding a Loving God in the Midst of Grief. Readers of this book will find God very close by in difficult times.” —Dr. Joseph White, child and family psychologist ISBN: 978-1-59325-346-2 176 pages, $14.95 Item# BGRFE9
