Stations of the Cross at Home!

We’ve got some crafts to help your family pray the Stations of the Cross at home!

Over the years, we have collected and created Catholic Crafts to help pray the Stations of the Cross with kids. With this Covid pandemic continuing on, a second Lent, Holy Week and Triduum at home is definitely a possibility. Here are some links for some Catholic Printables that are already researched and formatted. Most are easy assembly, just print (assemble sometimes) and pray!

Showcase of Lenten Resources



I’m excited to show you a few of my favorite Lenten resources:

  • Lenten traditions with “Feast Fast Feria Family Lent” from Barefoot Abbey
  • A full set of peg dolls with “Printable Peg Doll Wraps- The Passion Set” from Catholic Icing. Check out the Miniature Passion Play Peg Dolls I made using Lacy’s Printable Peg Doll wraps a couple years ago! Miniature Passion Play Peg Dolls  You can make them too!
  • The Holy Week Prayer Journal by To Jesus, Sincerely
  • The Stations of the Cross Spinwheel from ME, sincerely!

Prompt Me to Pray through LENT is the next special guide to help apply the practical plan for consistent prayer from the heart of Monica’s newly released book Prompt Me to Pray  to the Seasons, the Saints, and the Sacraments! We’re looking at the unique circumstances and graces available in these Catholic moments and mentored by these Catholic heroes to build the habit of prayer through extra timely
Prompts to Pray!
