Celebrating Catholic Family and Faith with crafts, Catechesis and traditions!
My friend Nancy at Do Small Things with Love has created 36 Catholic Saint Cross Stitch patterns and has invited a troop of crafty kids to make them…including my 9 year old Bridget!
In advance of our road trip to #worldmeetingoffamilies, I printed off the St Thérèse Cross Stitch pattern from Nancy’s site and made my own travel kit for Bridget to get started on, in the van.
We attended the World Meeting of Families with just two of our kids…but our #WorldMeetingofFamilies got cut short! The Secret Service closed the Vendor Hall down a DAY EARLY for the safety and security of Pope Francis!
Not sure if you heard! The Secret Service closed down the #WorldMeetingofFamilies Expo a DAY EARLY for the safety of Pope Francis! We’re happy to take a hit for the Holy Father, but we are hearing from sad #WMOF attendees who were planning to return to our booth on Friday to purchase our Catholic books, craft kits and quizzing cards!
When Jesus’ Body was removed, the Cross was hidden so that followers would not find it. About 300 years later the True Cross was found! Constantine the Great had a vision of the Cross which led him to victory. In response, Constantine had the image of the Cross placed on the shields of his soldiers. Although stolen in 614 by the King of Persia, the Cross was restored in its proper place in the Church of the Holy Sepulcher in 629.
Blessed Teresa is known for her virtue of compassion and for being the “icon of the Good Samaritan”, caring for the sick and the poor in India. She models for us the Scriptural Works of Mercy…meeting both the Corporal and Spiritual needs of each person she encountered.
Here’s what Catholic Families are saying about the Super Saints Craft Kit with all 54 Super Saints cards formatted to print and play with right away!
Jen at Faith and Fabric recommends printing 2 decks of Super Saints cards to play Memory and Go Fish! She also recommends playing Old Maid and Order Sorting with the deck of 54 cards.
As many of you know, we’ve been scrambling to print the Super Saints cards in time for the World Meeting of Families.
Our FlowerFunding campaign ends on Monday!
We have already released the Super Saints Craft Kit for those who just couldn’t wait to play with these unique quizzing cards and we’ve already had a number of awesome Catholic families tell us about how much fun they’ve been having, playing with these cards!
We can’t believe it’s time for the Equipping Catholic Families Back to School SALE!
We’ve been busy getting our Super Saints Cards ready for print and raising the funds to get them printed (God-Willing!) in time for the World Meeting of Families!
So excited to share some exciting news!!! Jen at Faith and Fabric, Jennifer from Catholic Inspired, and I (Equipping Catholic Families) are teaming up to help make your Catholic crafting easier.
If the aisles of Hobby Lobby are where you seek refuge, the only thing you’ve ever shot is a glue gun, and gramming is how you share your pics with the world, then this post is for you.

We have all heard the Nativity story, seen reenactments of Jesus’ Birth in school plays, Church pageants and even on the big screen. Santa Claus is pretty prevalent too, and we’re looking for ways to overpower the looming inflatable Santa Claus and Frosty that have adorned the house next door since mid-November.
