• Set aside consistent time for prayer.
• Join the Bible in a Year Journey with Fr. Mike Schmitz.
• Read more spiritual books.
• Commit to praying the Rosary more regularly.
• Attend Mass more than once a week.
• Spend time in Adoration at least once a month.
• Go to confession more frequently.
• Learn about the lives of Catholic saints.
• Explore saint-inspired recipes for family meals.
• Visit Catholic pilgrimage sites.
• Volunteer and engage more in Church and community activities.
• Bless each other with Holy Water.
• Teach your children new prayers.
• Deepen your understanding of Catholic Feast Days.

To support these resolutions, consider these resources:

The purpose of these resolutions is to grow closer to God and live out the richness of our Catholic faith in daily life. As we enter this New Year, let’s keep these resolutions in our hearts, striving to fulfill them with love, faith, and devotion.
