Celebrating Catholic Family and Faith with crafts, Catechesis and traditions!
A year ago, I was in ROME on the Feast Day of St Padre Pio!
In addition to all the extraordinary things I saw and experienced on my pilgrimage, I did something I’ve never done before while travelling! I extended my trip for 3 extra days…and changed my return plane ticket on the fly! Those three extra days enabled me to join Mike and Sue and Katherine of St Gemma’s Catholic Pilgrimages (www.takeapilgrimage.com) and take an extra pilgrimage to San Rotundo to see St Padre Pio!
We’re on our way to the #WorldMeetingofFamilies in Philadelphia! If you’re there for the Expo, please drop by Booth 835 to see us at Arma Dei: Equipping Catholic Families and our good friends…the Little Douglings!
We’ve been eagerly awaiting the arrival of our NEW Super Saints decks…and GUESS WHAT?!?
They arrived a WEEK EARLY…well in advance of the World Meeting of Families which we leave for this weekend!
Over at Equipping Catholic Families, we have created a number of Catholic Printables to make your family patron saint days memorable! All of our craft kits come with permission to copy and we’ve found that laminating the printed templates make them last year after year.

Happy Birthday Mother Mary!
There are a lot of ways to celebrate Mother Mary’s birth; the most obvious is probably a birthday cake! In A Treasure Chest of Traditions for Catholic Families we recommend an All-White Dinner reminding us that Mary was born without sin! I collected a bunch of pins on Pinterest, searching Birth of Mary, birthday cakes and white food… At Equipping Catholic Families, we have created a number of dolls and figures for Mother Mary. Check out: Egg Carton Mary and Mary TY Doll and our Wooden Painted Saint: Mother Mary! Check out our Wooden Painted Saint Tutorial An Alphabet of Mary is a sweet book with little poems, explanations and illustrations of the titles and qualities of Mother Mary. Check out current Specials at Catholic Artworks!
We’ve been renovating and expanding! We have decided to set up a satellite store for Arma Dei…right here at Equipping Catholic Families for our paper products!
