  8. Why Participate? As we all know, there are many lapsed Catholics out there, especially within the millennial generation. Maybe you are one of them. If it’s been a while since you’ve been to mass, you may hesitate, unsure about how to connect. We have created this App to be your first step toward reconnecting. WeParentMoreis here to become that “have to have” resource you turn to on a daily basis to answer your questions, link you to Catholic resources, and keep you engaged in faith.  

  9. More Details about WeParentMore WeParentMore is a free mobile app for Catholics.   We have designed this app with young parents in mind to help you (re)engage with our Catholic faith.   We know it is time to do more to engage young parents.  WeParentMore reaches out to you via your mobile devices, a medium that is most familiar to you.  We provide reliable, faith-based information to care for the body and nourish the soul.   WeParentMore also offers inspirational content, guidance to build a solid foundation for success, a way to (re)connect with the local parish, and educational entertainment for their little ones. 

  10. An Important Stage in Your Life If you’ve just had a baby or are about to have a child, you know this is a turning point in your life.  At this time in your life, everything takes on greater meaning, priorities get rearranged and you’ve entered a new chapter.  At this transformational time in your life and the lives of their children, it is especially important to (re) engage with the Church. WeParentMore is here to help you with all the big decisions.  We offer the best resources to help with day to day parenting concerns: child’s developmental stages, lack of sleep, thumb sucking, bed time stories, nutrition.  

  11. Our Aspiration Helping more children attend Catholic school Proceeds go towards scholarships for Catholic education.

  12. Our Hopes We have high hopes for the use of WeParentMore in parish, school and diocese across the U.S. and around the world to (re)engage young parents. We will facilitate your (re)connection with our Catholic faith and help you realize the important role a vibrant faith community plays in the rearing of your children.

  13. My Parish and School Search Via “My Parish and School” on the WeParentMore app, you can find a parish, school or diocese by searching by name, location and language spoken. The search results will appear in a list. The WeParentMore participants will be listed first with a small WeParentMoreicon to identify that they contain a wealth of additional information including mass times, news, calendars, parish/school events, school enrollment forms, etc. The other parishes and schools will simply be listed by name and address. These other listings will provide mass times, thanks to collaboration with masstimes.org, giving WeParentMore access over 100,000 parishes, worldwide.

  14. Search Results When you select a WeParentMore Participant’s enhanced listing, you will see the equivalent of a mini bulletin.  Each participating parish and schoolhas a personal set of pages to share information that is specific to its community and its young members.  Think of it as a mini-online bulletin dedicated to young families providing information about Mass times, Parenting groups, Special events, Parish registration and School enrollment. Once you find a parish or school, you can mark the listing as a Favorite. You can use WeParentMore to request information from your parish or school office via an email link. You may ask for information to join the parish, inquire about baptism, request school and pre-school information.
