Celebrating Catholic Family and Faith with crafts, Catechesis and traditions!
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.
I have recently discovered an AI-assisted Journaling APP and I have been using it now consistently for 3 months. A 92-day streak!
Rosebud offers prompts for Morning Intentions, a Daily Challenge and an Evening Reflection, along with Today’s goals and tailored prompts reflecting my past entries. It is easily accessible on both my phone and my iPad. It offers weekly reports, summaries and analysis of my entries to help me organize my thoughts, review my spiritual journey and even prep for my next meeting with my Spiritual Director.
We’ve put together a quick summary of Catholic Crafts for July Saints and the Monthly Devotion of The Precious Blood of Jesus.

Imagine You Walked with Jesus: A Guide to Ignatian Contemplative Prayer
by Jerry Windley-Daoust
Our Sunday Visitor
This book is a treasure!
Windley-Daoust provides all the context of first-century Palestine, including what the buildings looked and felt like, what clothes the people wore, and what food they enjoyed, as well as insights into the Jewish culture of the time. He provides prayer to help us receive the specific Scripture and then ‘sets the scene’ with helpful detail about the context, given the culture and any special references alluded to within the Scripture. The author then extends a few questions to prompt reflection and consider how the story applies to our lives. He encourages us to reflect and prayer-journal or share with a prayer group.
We’ve added a couple Catholic Stamps to the Prayer Impressions Journal Stamp Shop!
The 2″ Divine Mercy Stamp includes counting beads in the border and a prayer intentions space so that you can keep track of the 5 decades, the 10 “For the Sake of…” prayers for each decade and the 3 “Holy God, Holy Mighty One, Holy Immortal One” prayers at the end of the five decades. This is a nice visual for journalers to incorporate the Divine Mercy Chaplet with their prayer-journaling!
My go-to devotion is the Cloak of St Joseph and I prefer good deed bead bracelets or other one-decade rosary tools to pray my rosary.
I’ve been forever changed by a few experiences with relics from two of my favorite saints, St. John Paul II and St. Padre Pio. However, I think I’d like to be remembered for two particular practices that have enhanced my personal prayer but may not be recognized as official Catholic traditions or devotions (yet).
With our own custom Super Saints artwork for over 60 Saints, I’m pleased to be able to add new Saints Stamps to the shop as they are requested by customers. I was happy to include the St Benedict medal graphic behind St Benedict’s head. It almost looks like a very specialized halo.
The Prayer Journal Prompts Special Bundle Craft Kit features a collection of 7 pages of prompts, prayers and check-box novena templates to customize your own Prayer Journal or Planner…or unique Prayer Bullet Journal! Prayers and Novenas are illustrated with Kelly SaintsTM.
