Our Home Altar

Sacred Heart Farm has asked me to show pictures of our Home Altar.

 I'm not exactly sure I'd call it an altar, it is more of a Home Altar Shelf. 

But in our basement the children converted a little room into a place where they can practice saying the Mass (mostly for the sake of Altar Boy training... which we need to do for Merry and Pippin).  We also use this for a place we can have our time for meditation each day.  Each child up to age 10 spends 1 minute for their age in prayer.  AFter age 10 they will spend at least their age in minutes up to an hour.  When this picture was taken it was a little in need of cleaning but you get the idea.  I have a set of stations of the cross for the wall that we have yet to put up.

  1. I love that you have an "Altar" in the basement for server practice and meditation. What a wonderful practice to have the children meditate in prayer minutes according to their age! Thank you for sharing your family's Home Altars!
