Looking for easy eats for celebrating in your domestic church this week?
I've got you covered!
October 13 marks the anniversary of the Miracle of the Sun - a day that is super simple to celebrate with you family!
Just whip up a "sun" with anything that you have in your fridge and cupboards, have a chat about the Miracle of the Sun, pray the Rosary together, and, if you wish, add in some themed reading, listening, watching, or copywork. (I shared a free copywork set here before.)
If you do not know much about the Miracle of the Sun, or if you just want a succinct reminder about the day to share with your children, Catholic365 offers one here:
And, if you'd like some ideas for simple, quick "sun" dishes, you might be inspired by out simple eats from last year.

After Mass, we toasted a quick-n-easy, casein-free nacho "sun" using Chi- Chi's tortilla chips and Daiya cheese, which we served with a side of salsa.
This "sun" may have been a bit overcooked, but it was festive when placed on an outside table covered in a blue - for Mary - tablecloth and set with Marian Apparitions peg dolls, candles, and a few of our Our Lady of Fatima resources.
In fact, once we had prayed grace, my children happily devoured our nacho "sun" while chatting about Our Lady of Fatima and retelling the story of the Miracle of the Sun.

Plus, our "sun juice" - Ceres 100% juice - went down easy, too.
Satisfied by our simple eats and fortified by faith-centered chatting, the children progressed with the day, which later included the blessing of participating in a Coast-to-Coast Rosary event.
While at the event, a rainbow randomly appeared.
Wow! Magnificent! God is so good and creates such glorious beauty for us.

I pray that your Miracle of the Sun day this year has delightful moments like ours did last year.
With simple eats and praying together as a family or with others, your domestic church, no doubt, will enjoy and be blessed.
