Slowing Down and Savoring the Gift of One Another

In Amoris Laetitia, Pope Francis writes, “Love needs space and time…Time is needed to talk things over, to embrace leisurely, to share plans, to appreciate one another and to build a stronger relationship. Sometimes the frenetic pace of our society and the pressures of the workplace create problems, at other times the problem is the lack of quality time together, sharing the same room without one even noticing the other.” Tim and Sue Muldoon are here with ideas on how to slow down and savor the little moments with our family.
