BUILDING THE DOMESTIC CHURCH

The Family Full Alive Program

​The Family Fully Alive Program is a Knights of Columbus endeavor that asks families to invite God into their homes and cultivates each family as a miniature domestic church.  The program provides themes, scriptures verses, and activities for each month of the year.   Each family has the opportunity to grow in holiness together.  This program can be started at any time of the year and continues year-round.  Using The Family Fully Alive Booklet as a devotional guide helps families place God and the Catholic Faith at the center of their lives.  The booklet has reflections, mediation, prayers, and group projects with monthly themes starting with Joy for December. ANelectronic copy of the booklet pdf can be downloaded HERE.
