Catholic Kids Media - These are the Gospel videos we share with the kids during Children's Liturgy. We support this content creator on their Patreon and will be sharing the handouts with you throughout the year. You can receive the weekly videos for free by subscribing to Start with Sunday (an initiative by the Diocese of Bridgeport). By watching these videos with your children before attending Mass, you can prepare your hearts to hear from God each and every week. This is a simple and easy way to nourish your life of faith.

Hallow Prayer App - This Catholic specific prayer App offers easy ways to incorporate more prayer and to go deeper in faith through their huge content library.  Even the free version provides a solid support for incorporating faith into your day to day. They offer content in multiple languages, making it even easier to get in touch with God.

Ascension Press - A resource brimming over with opportunities to go deeper in faith. The Bible in a Year and Catechism in a Year (available as a free resource through a variety of apps and options) can enrich, enlighten and break open a new and profound understanding of God and the faith He places in each of us. Follow along at your own pace; on your commute to work, while doing dishes or laundry, during your workout or walking the dog.  

Parent Cue App - Although not a specifically Catholic resource, this App is a wonderful resource to help you establish regular faith practices within your home. They offer guides for different age groups and ideas for connecting faith to regular life. Creating rhythms and routines that help sustain faithful living.
