About This Site

Worship@Home is an online resource that was created to help families with children pray together at home during the COVID-19 pandemic. It offered a different Liturgy of the Word service for each Sunday for 14 months.

When we launched this site, we only expected it to last a month or two. It wasn't until over a year later that we saw a dramatic decrease in the number of families using it each week as vaccinations took place and parishes begin to meet in person again. In its place, we have posted guidelines for building your own Worship@Home service.

If this site has been helpful to you, please consider making a donation to support our ministry, our full-time work that has been significantly impacted by the pandemic. You can do so by Venmo or PayPal or credit card.

Thank you for being part of the Worship@Home community!

Growing Up Catholic

This site is a project of The Pastoral Center's Growing Up Catholic ministry. This ministry is driven by the idea that parents are the first teachers of their own children and that church leaders should equip, coach, and support them in this important work. Studies tell us that when parents are not actively involved in sharing faith with their own children, their children are much less likely to remain Catholic.

The Pastoral Center

The Pastoral Center is a family-owned and run ministry serving Catholic pastoral leaders (and our full-time job).

We provide tools and support for every parish ministry. We are Catholic pastoral ministers ourselves with extensive experience in a wide variety of pastoral ministries. We really understand the joys and challenges of ministry work. Key to our ministry:

• Practical pastoral resources. We seek out and create excellent resources that leaders can put into use right away.
• Affordability. We know parish budgets are tight. That's why we offer bulk-pricing, inexpensive booklets, and downloadable, reproducible eResources.
• Free pastoral coaching by phone. We'll talk you through your situation, give you suggestions, and point you to helpful resources.
