The saints are...
1. Saint Simon Peter
2. Saint Veronica
3. Saint Genevieve
4. Saint Joan of Arc
5. Saint Anthony of Padua

The downloadable PDF coloring book is only $4, less than a cuppa joe---and families can make as many copies of the drawings as they like for their immediate family.

Free Coloring Page: Pope Francis in the United States

Hooray, Pope Francis is on his way to the United States!

Although I won't be able to go visit the pope, I plan on keeping tabs of his visits and what he (really) says.

In that spirit, I drew up a free coloring page of Pope Francis that highlights the three U.S. cities on his tour (Washington, D.C.; New York City; and Philadelphia).

You can download the free Catholic coloring page here or click on the image to download the free PDF.

Free Sacred Heart of Jesus Coloring Page and Craft [Printable]

Download the free Sacred Heart of Jesus coloring page!

Happy feast day of the Sacred Heart of Jesus!

To celebrate this day, here's a Sacred Heart of Jesus coloring page that can be used as a craft activity, too.

On the right side of the coloring page is the cross, heart, and rays to create the sacred heart and add it to the chest of Jesus.

You can use the little images by:

• coloring them, cutting them out, and adding them to the drawing
• cutting them out, putting them on construction paper, tracing them, cutting them out, and gluing/pasting them to the drawing
• ignoring them completely and drawing your own sacred heart.

We'll be using this craft for our Catholic moms' group today. I cut and traced the heart and circle, but because we have so many little children, I figured they could just draw a cross rather than handle a small cross. (You can also just use stickers of hearts and crosses from your local dollar store.)

Enjoy!

Free Mary the Undoer of Knots Coloring Page [Printable]

Recently, a friend gave me a holy card of Mary, the Undoer of Knots. The image of Mary taking the tangled mess of our worries, fears, and sorrows, and bringing order and peace to our hearts has remained with me for the past several days.

As I thought about Mary, I drew my version of Mary and decided to share this free Mary the Undoer of Knots printable with you.
