Bring the Life of the Church into your home with these beautiful and simplified one page monthly printables!

3 Page Download Includes: October, November, and December (3 Months) for Old Calendar dates 2024.

So my hope with these monthly printables is to pair it down for you. Let’s make a goal to learn about ONE saint this month, and do ONE activity this month related to a featured saint. Throughout the month, learn ONE hymn by singing it together every day, or as often as you can. And lastly, intentionally carve out time to create a strong family culture in your home (in the Family Corner section). According to Saint John Chrysostom, the home is a “little church.” By bringing these small experiences of the Church into the home, we more fully recognize and appreciate what it means to be the Church when we gather during the Liturgy. Our lives at home should be a reflection of our life in the Church. I’ve also included a few reminders of common traditions associated with the feast days each month.

For this download, you will receive October, November, December.

Each Month Includes :

• Important dates in the Orthodox Church Calendar and a few reminders of common traditions associated so you know what's coming up and plan accordingly

• Saint focus for the month - there are multiple saints celebrated each day so it can be easy to feel overwhelmed. Let’s focus on ONE this month and learn more about the details of their life in a simple understandable way for children.

• Family Corner - building family culture takes intention, so we've included a simple ideas for the whole family to engage in summertime activities as a family.

• Activity - one of the best ways to help kids engage in the Liturgical Calendar is by bringing the stories to life! Making those connections outside of church can be really helpful so when they are in church for the services they can make those connections in the Liturgy, icons, and hymnography. And don't worry, you don't have to be a “crafty” parent to do these activities. They are very simple and fun!

• Song - let's learn one song a month, shall we? By singing the hymn weekly, you'll begin to familiarize yourself with it so by the time you hear it sung in church, you'll already have it written in your heart ❤️ the Liturgical Hymns hold the meaning behind each Feasts, so learning them will be a great joy

• Prayer - this month practice a new prayer to memorize

• BONUS: included some extra information and QR code links to go further into living liturgically!
