Celebrating Catholic Family and Faith with crafts, Catechesis and traditions!
Summer is closing in! Want to spend the SUMMER getting to know the Saints better?
We’ve got craft kits for that! 86 Saints are presented across our FOUR Saint Scripts Craft Kits with full color postcards, short bios and quick facts, along with black and white templates for DIY research projects, Saint Albums, quizzing games and art projects!
The Seven Prayer Dispositions are all vital parts of healthy prayer.
We are all called to pray every day! We find our most meaningful approach to prayer affected by our different temperament and gifts, how our Faith has been modelled for us and how much we lean on it in our every day life. We find that our own prayer habits and our favorite go-to prayers are different from those around us, but we can deepen our prayer and intimacy with Jesus by practicing prayer dispositions that vary from our own.
June Saints and Feast Days offer awesome opportunities to celebrate our Catholic Faith at HOME! If you’re just getting started…just pick one each month and save the crafts and decor you make and collect for years to come! It doesn’t take much effort to celebrate a Saints Day and enjoy how it becomes a unique family tradition, that your kids will ask for, even when you forget!
30 Coins Hidden
Tenebrae means “shadow” or “darkness.” The Liturgy of the Hours is chanted and with the completion of each reading, a candle is extinguished until the church is pitch black.
Spy Wednesday is traditionally the day we read how Mary anointed Jesus’ Feet with expensive oil and dried His Feet with her hair. Judas criticizes Mary’s efforts, mentioning that the price of the expensive oil would be better suited to help the poor. Judas looks for an opportunity to turn Jesus over to the chief priests and will receive 30 coins for his betrayal; approximately one tenth the expense of the anointing oil.
This self-guided retreat is an invitation to rediscover prayer in the midst of ordinary life. Instead of waiting for the “perfect” quiet moment, or quieter season in your life, you’ll learn how to turn your real, everyday experiences into personal prompts to pray from the heart. Daily chores, routines, distractions, temptations, frustrations, and even your habits and weaknesses become gentle reminders to reach for the Lord. Nothing is wasted — every thought, feeling, and task can become a small, personal return to His presence…and a custom conversation-starter with Him. By the end of this retreat, you’ll be building a rhythm of prayer that grows naturally out of your real life,
With Advent just around the corner, we know that things are going to ramp up with Christmas shopping, Christmas parties, Christmas music in every store and Christmas decor all around.
There will be Christmas concerts and wishlists…and it’s hard not to get caught up in the rush of it all.
Advent starts on November 30th!

When I first skimmed through Around the Catholic Table by Emily Stimpson Chapman, I was a tiny bit disappointed because I thought the recipes would be focused on the Catholic Liturgical Calendar or the Catholic Saints. I then read through the Introduction and discovered Emily’s passion for cooking and hospitality, reflecting her parents’ love of hosting, and how her passion flourished with Thursday Night Dinners at Franciscan University, and continues today, hosting family and friends with her own family.
