NEW Craft Kit: Adjustable Liturgical Calendar!

The 2015-2016 Liturgical Calendar starts fresh in 27 days!

Have you ever tried to teach the concept of the Liturgical Calendar or wished that you had an easy way see it in ONE glance?

I’ve always eyed those circular Liturgical Calendar posters (like this:  Year of Grace 2016 Poster Calendar)
…and now with Kelly Saints Comics, I have created an Adjustable Liturgical Calendar for use year after year, with 72 unique and awesome Kelly Saints Stickies to tailor the calendar with each family’s patron saints!

Our new Jesus Tree for Lent!

Although I have on occasion put the Jesse Tree Treasures’ Holy Week Ornaments on our own Handprint Tree Felt Banner, our family hasn’t done The Jesus Tree…until THIS LENT!

Each ornament refers to a particular passage from the New Testament about Jesus’ Life. As we read through each assigned passage, we review the major events of Jesus’ Life and His Teaching. We prepare for the events of Holy Week and the Triduum, Ascension and Pentecost, proudly decorating this tree throughout the seasons of Lent and Easter!
