Celebrating Catholic Family and Faith with crafts, Catechesis and traditions!
Introducing a new SAINTS card game: Super Saints!
while playing Super Saints STATS (flash cards) or Super Saints SHOWDOWN (see Top Trumps or NEW SAINTS GAME for more info)
54 Saint Cards + 1 Vocation Index (+ Quick Rules) in a glossy printed box
Top Trumps is a UNIVERSE of cool card games! It’s played kind of like the playing card game WAR, but incorporating and comparing numeric facts of your favorite movie characters, countries, book characters, wonders of the world…
Scrapbooking or journaling is a great way to document our kids’ journey through the Sacraments! Compiling documents, pictures and thoughtful notes into a special book is fun to do…and makes a great gift for the child. Keepsakes like this help to build our Catholic family culture, focusing on these monumental milestones in our Catholic Faith.
Last year, I made this special PrayerLoom Prayer Book for Bridget as she celebrated her First Holy Communion.
I took the finished scrapbook to our Parish Women’s Group, showing them the Catholic Craft Kits, Books and Cards I create
This Easter season of the Liturgical Calendar, every First Reading of Daily Mass comes from the Acts of the Apostles. Aren’t these readings awesome and inspiring?
The Acts …show us how empowered the early Church Christians were…filled with the Holy Spirit and convicted to speak and convert thousands at a time! Don’t you love how the Apostles are repeatedly thrown into prison, but they don’t let their surroundings dampen their enthusiasm! In fact…they just seem to use the opportunity to host a prayer meeting…singing, praying and praising until angels come and let them out through the locked doors to the dismay of the guards!
We’ve been building our collection of little Wooden Painted Saints…and we decided to make a Gallery of all the posts we’ve written about them…including a Tutorial with hints and tips to make them and ways to use them, play with them and stage and store them!
Holy Week is here!
We’ve collected all our special Holy Week crafts and activities to focus our efforts and make our Holy Week holy!
This year we released a new craft kit: Stations of the Cross with the Kelly Saints. We can suggest many ways of using this kit and you might find just what you’re looking for …for a little extra focus this week!
We’ve got a new set of little Wooden Painted Saints! Lacy released her Printable Resurrection Set this week and once again, I converted them to the smaller 1.75″ peg doll size and made 2 sets.
Excerpts from A Treasure Chest of Traditions for Catholic Families , various posts at Equipping Catholic Families and our Saint Scripts Craft Kits (Series ONE and TWO).
St Joseph was humble, pure, gentle and wise, protecting the Holy Family. He walked by Faith, taking Mary as his wife and guiding and protecting the Baby Jesus, heeding the instructions from the Angel of the Lord. It is believed that Joseph died peacefully in the Arms of Jesus and Mary.
Last year, I made a couple figures out of Egg Cartons…including a couple knights as our company mascot Arma Dei (Armor of God)
I made Mother Mary…and a Pope Francis as well!
It occurred to me that the little knights could stand in as Roman soldiers…and the beginning plans of a new Egg Carton Character Passion Play begins to take hold…
