PRINT Catholic Culture The Feast of the Holy Family The Church has a long tradition of holding up the Holy Family as a model for family life. Mark December 30 on your calendar as a reminder to ask God to help your family grow in the love and respect for one another that Jesus, Mary, and Joseph show us. Here is a prayer to say together on the feast of the Holy Family. “Father, help us to live as the holy family, united in respect and love. Bring us to the joy and peace of your eternal home.” A Service of Note to Parents: More resources at pflaum.com/familypages © 2011 Pflaum Publishing Group, Dayton, OH.
