In 2024, the Episcopal Diocese of Louisiana received a 1.25 million dollar grant from the Lilly Endowment Inc. to create a new approach in ministry to families. The Little Box of Good News® is our answer!
Starting in 2025, the Little Box of Good News® became available as a subscription-style box for families to explore topics of our Episcopal faith together. Each box includes multiple, repeatable activities for families, conversation starters, and a connection piece to a local participating parish (within Louisiana) where families are invited to create community. We are excited that these kits are fully bilingual (English/Spanish), inclusive, fun, and unabashedly Episcopalian!
In addition, we will have Beyond the Box elements, including small groups (Little Circles of Good News) and an annual family retreat (Little Weekend of Good News).
