June in The Byzantine Life
A major theme for the month of June is the twelve apostles. So, in our home, we will focus on the twelve apostles for catechesis.
For children, ByziMom has two magazines free online for these subjects. June 2021 – Apostles, and June 2019 – Sts. Peter and Paul. You can find these (and other great faith reading and activities) in the ByziKids Magazine Archives here.
