I admit that we lost contact with organised religion after the twins were born.
It required a big effort to get the family to mass and the twins were a handful.
Traditional denominations in Australia have lost members partly because they haven’t been family friendly.
As congregations grow older it’s hard for parents to take young children to church in an environment where they have few peers.
That’s no reason though to forget or ignore one’s faith.
With Kathleen attending a Catholic secondary school next year it’s likely we’ll become more involved in the local parish.
