Summer (and Spring!) Resource Round Up

With spring in full swing and summer just around the corner, here’s a round-up of SALT’s digital/printable resources for families of all shapes and sizes. Each one is a lovely little structure for helping blend faith with everyday life as the days get longer and warmer...

First, SALT's “‘Great and Small’ Guide to the Most Okayest Summer Ever!” is a fun, toe-tapping guide organized around six songs from SALT’s house band, Butterflyfish (the songs come with the download). It’s the back-by-popular-demand sequel to “Sing! Play! Summer!”, also organized around another six sing-along-able Butterflyfish tunes.

Here’s a compelling, thoughtful, deep dive into one of the most pressing issues of our time: the struggle with prejudice, privilege, and inequality. “The Anatomy of a Christian: A Zine on Privilege and Solidarity” is a guide to connecting this struggle with the nit and grit of faith, the Body of Christ, and God’s call to help build a more vibrant, just, inclusive Beloved Community.

For those who want to experience the weeks and months ahead as a time for reconnecting with a slower, more humane, Sabbath-style rhythm, there's “Find Your Slow Summer.”

And for a guide to self-care and building relationships through homey activities and the Scandanavian tradition of “hygge” (pronounced “HOO-gah”), try SALT's “Guide to Self-Care for Families Together at Home.”
