About

Mike and Alicia Hernon of the Messy Family Project have been invited by the Life Marriage Family team, Sydney Centre for Evangelisation in the Catholic Archdiocese of Sydney to do a series of talks and events in Sydney and New Zealand from 8-21 May 2026.

The Messy Family Projects mission is to empower parents, strengthen marriages and bring families to Christ. They help build family culture through formational courses, presentations and their podcast with three key pillars: spiritual leadership, primacy of marriage and formation of children.

Mike and Alicia Hernon walk couples and individuals through four atomic habits of the home – your family culture, formation of children, marriage, and spiritual leadership. They share wisdom and principles that are applicable to families young and old.

The course will include four sessions to equip and empower parents to embrace their sacred calling, mainly focusing on sharing the practical tools needed to not just survive but thrive as a family. This course is designed to open parents up to God’s vision for marriage and family and teach them the habits that they need to transform their family life. It is part marriage renewal, part parenting course and part retreat.
