In today's fast-paced tech world, we forget to slow down as a family especially since summer is the perfect time to spend with our precious family members. Vacations, day trips, time at the pool, church events are some of the ways families can cherish special time.

Most of all, as Catholics, time as a family at Sunday Mass is of utmost importance. This is the greatest way to grow closer as a family.

​The St. Raymond Nonnatus Foundation for Freedom, Family, and Faith is an expression and application of the charisms of the Mercedarian Religious Order. Our mission is to make outreach to families in crisis, and our initial mission is to families and individuals affected by divorce and separation. 

​Our latest endeavors include a larger reach through digital media via Smart Speaker devices such as "Amazon's Alexa" and "Echo". We are in the process of moving forward in the development of apps for these devices related to the Catholic faith and phone apps. These endeavors will take time, effort, and also funds.

​The St. Raymond Nonnatus Foundation will hold another "On-line Support Group for Adult Children of Divorce" on Thursday, June 27th at 8 p.m. EST.
