The Christian family is the domestic Church. It is one of the most important environments for nurturing faith, the first school of prayer and Christian education.

This was perfectly understood by Fr Dionysius Dorozhynsky (1866-1930), a theologian, church, cultural and educational figure of the last century. In order to help parents to be a worthy example of a virtuous life for their children, he compiled a book about church feasts and the lives of some saints, intended for family reading. Such joint reading, in the author's opinion, is one of the most successful means of fostering domestic piety.

It has been over a hundred years since the first edition of this book was published. Now we offer a new edition, revised and edited to meet modern requirements.

The book is illustrated with colour images of icons from the collections of the Andrey Sheptytsky National Museum in Lviv.
