Celebrating Catholic Family and Faith with crafts, Catechesis and traditions!
So I’ve been creating my own collection of Wooden Painted Saints…and inventing ways to play with them for a couple years now:
…and then I saw Lacy’s Printable Peg Dolls this week over at
Have you participated in a Wooden Painted Saint Exchange? These seem to be popping up all over the place…and maybe you need a place for all your little Painted Saints to hang out! What better place than your own little Cathedral?

January 21 is the Feast Day of St Agnes
St Agnes refused marriage at the age of 13, dedicating herself to Jesus and she was martyred for her Faith. She is known for the virtue of Purity and her symbol is the lamb. She is the patron of young girls.
We have just released our NEW Stations of the Cross Craft Kit featuring the Kelly Saints!

The kit includes full templates in color (ready-to-use) AND in black and white (ready to color). A summary page is included with thumbnail images and descriptions for reflection.
1. I actually had these Prayer Journal Stamps made after my post here: My Latest Prayer Gimmick. It was pretty easy, once I found the Rubber Stamp company that would ship to Canada! If you are motivated by To Do Lists and Checklists…this is a quick and easy way to transform a blank notebook from the dollar store into a personalized Prayer Journal!
January 6th is the Feast Day of St Brother André.
Chronic stomach pain had made it difficult for St André to hold a job. At 25, he could not read or write. He was deeply devoted to God and to St Joseph and insisted on building a shrine. He quietly greeted visitors as a lay brother of the Congregation of the Holy Cross and people began to seek prayer from him. St André gave the credit for all of the resulting physical healings to the intercession of St Joseph. In 1924, construction began for St Joseph’s Oratory in Montreal, QC, alongside the chapel built on St André’s insistence.
For a number of reasons including a significant blog breakdown and a one-day window to get our Christmas tree to the curb, the Feast of the Epiphany was a little quiet at our house this year!
Many families celebrate this last day of the Christmas season with a party, celebrating the Kings arrival at Jesus’ Crib. This celebration no doubt includes King Cake…and finding a coin or ring (or Baby Jesus) inside it! Some families even let the coin- or ring-finder be King (or Queen!) for the Day!
OK, so after my blog was shut down for THREE whole days, I’m so grateful to have a new host and an awesome techie friend Michael! He doesn’t know it yet, but he’s got a Catholic praying something fierce for him. While a few things were getting shifted around, deleted or updated…I only lost ONE post: the second half of Blog in a Blink 2014! So here it is, recreated on my newly hosted blog!
