Domestic Church
+JMJ
Dear family,
As a Catholic family...we not only can return to the spirit of the early home churches... we are called to.
The Church herself teaches this through the beautiful concept of the Domestic Church.
What does this mean?
The Catechism of the Catholic Church states:
"The Christian family is the first and vital cell of society. It is the Domestic Church."
(CCC 2204)
This doesn’t replace the parish church... the sacraments, especially the Eucharist, require ordained priests and community worship.
But the home is where:
Faith is first taught and caught
Prayer is nurtured
Morality is formed
Hospitality is extended
Traditions are preserved
Vocations are discerned
So while we don’t replace the Church’s liturgical life or structure, we reclaim the intimacy and strength of the early Church by making our homes holy ground... abbeys in miniature, places of worship, works of mercy, study, healing, and sacramental living.
And yes — especially today…
With so much chaos in the world and even within the Church at times, returning to the simplicity, intentionality, and beauty of a home-centered faith life is not only permissible... it is providential.
Many holy families are quietly raising up saints in kitchens, gardens, and living rooms.
We’re not going backward...we’re going back to the roots to strengthen the future.
Sending our love and prayers to our remnant family...Wendy, Walt and the entire Cukierski family

Here is a post, from a recipient of what we do,.
L**** and I were one of the precipitants of This mission. She is right. My parking was 9 per day for 3 months. Then on top of that food cost me approximately 15 per day. That was cheap - I got vouchers for $5.00 per meal. So somedays I did not eat or made meals last for more then one meal. Had to. Parking was $810. Food was $1,300. Then you have normal household bills and I have 3 animals I had to pay to have people come and take care of them. At first I had my dog in the Kennel for 1/2 the time. That was about 500. It is VERY expensive to have a sick child. That was Just ONE hospital stay. We have had numerous ones. Some only a few days, some a week or two. Without their help we would of gone fully under!
From providing necessary funds to actually having families stay with us...we DO what we say we do!
