5 Simple Gifts Catholic Women Love

What do Catholic women really want?

Yes, we definitely want prayers! We so appreciate prayers! We also enjoy time praying and socializing together (which is why I’m organizing another Prayer Wine Chocolate Retreat and making it possible for women everywhere to host their own Retreats)!

But . . . we also like gifts that help us stay close to God and find joy in the little things!

Here are a few ideas the next time you are shopping for a Catholic friend!

Catholic Mugs . . .Big Catholic Mugs

I love the little things!

I especially love Catholic mugs! They have to big on the bigger size though (15 ounces please!).

This Morning Offering Mug is definitely on my wish list!

Also, this watercolor Hail Mary mug . . .

Mug with flowers and the Hail Mary written on it

Both of these mugs are from The Little Rose Shop – which has quite a few awesome mugs I recommend you check out!

Pretty and Practical Catholic Apparel

I’ve had my eyes on Sock Religous’ NO SHOW socks for a while now. I think my top three favorites are the Saint Joan of Arc socks, *****Padre Pio socks**** (color is perfect for Fall- YES PLEASE) and then I think it’s a tie between the Come Holy Spirit Socks and the St. Patrick ones! I love a practical gift that adds faith and fun!

Socks with COME Holy Spirit written on the bottom

Catholic Tees and Sweatshirts

I love the look of this shirt and the Saint quote on it: The World is Thy Ship Not Thy Home Tee made by Petite Fleur Studios. I can totally picture wearing this under an open flannel in the Fall! I also love the white sweatshirt version of this tee!

Tee shirt with a ship on it and the quote around the ship says THE WORLD IS THY SHIP NOT THY HOME

I’m also loving Sweet Little Ones long sleeve tee and short sleeve tee quoting Saint Catherine Laboure with “We must see God in everyone”!

Catholic Jewelry

I always wear a Miraculous Medal necklace. This practice started shortly after I started this blog! I researched the Miraculous Medal for a post, and discovered how incredible graces are given to those who wear this medal around your neck (here’s the post from years ago: Why I Wear a Miraculous Medal)

Beaded Miraculous Medal necklace and simple pink earrings

It can be fun to change up this necklace once in a while – and if I’m being perfectly honest, my younger children often contribute to me changing it up. My necklace often gets pulled – sometimes yanked – off my neck.

So, I’m thinking this beaded one is so pretty and would be a beautiful piece to have to wear! I’d definitely want those cute pink earrings with it too :).

I need a new jewelry box. Since I don’t wear a ton of accessories, this jewelry box leatherette from Telos has caught my eye. I love the blush color option.

Catholic Earrings

Although I am not really a big jewelry person, I have found a new love for earrings. Here are a few Catholic earrings I would love to wear from Pink Salt Riot:

Fantastically You Lace Earrings in Evergreen

A pair of blue dangle earrings

Peacock Fan Tassel Earrings

Peridot Druzy Earrings and all the druzy earrings! Plus those butterfly wing earrings – so many great choices!!!

More Catholic Gifts for Women

I could list my favorites all day! I hope you’ll remember these next time a special woman in your life has a birthday or on a day you just want to say, “I’m thinking of you – and God loves you”!

What would you add? Tell me in the comments – it won’t be long before I’m gathering ideas for Christmas gift guides! Help me stay in the loop – what Catholic gifts do you LOVE?

Don’t forget to plan time to pray with friends!

Cheers to Friday! 🍷 I was SO EXCITED when a while Cheers to Friday! 🍷
I was SO EXCITED when a while back THE @stephanieweinert Stephanie Weinert tagged me in her #7quicktakes #sevenquicktakes #fridayintroductions post.

I’m jumping in today! 

1. I recently took my own “headshots”. The first photo is one of MANY photos I took. It was super windy that day. If you need professional photos… give it a try - you can save a ton of $ this way! I used a tripod and my phone!

2. I see a lot of people posting photos of 2016. In 2016 I heard Gianna Emanuela (daughter of Saint Gianna) give a talk. I remember thinking, “her Dad sounds like a saint too!” I got to meet her. My husband and oldest son met her and asked her to pray that we could adopt again. 40 weeks later our twins were born!

3. Gianna Emmanuela is doing all she can to help the world see how holy her Father was. She has made prayer cards with Ecclesiastic approval. I’m asking Pietro Molla to intercede for a special intention. I will post more about this soon! He is such an inspiring man!

4. I have two guilty pleasures. I love getting my hair done and every once in a while I get a box from Stitch Fix. My coat was in one of those boxes.

5. I can’t remember all the pictures I chose for this post. I’m super forgetful. It’s not my age, I’ve always been this way. Saint Anthony is busy with just me most of the time.

6. We are taking our Christmas tree down this weekend. I loved our tree so much this year. My husband, all 3 children and me picked it out. We all agreed upon it and it really is so perfect.

7. I’m not so great at tech. I don’t know how to go back and see which pictures I posted without deleting this whole post. I promised after this post I would play a @saints.alive.pod episode for my daughter. I’m off to listen to another episode for at least the 3rd time. Hoping a new one comes out soon 😉 

Thank you for reading all that! I’m so grateful you’re here! Tell me something about you!!!

Thank you Stephanie for tagging me months ago? ago… This is how behind I am on everything!
Who wants friends that pray behind your back!? Who Who wants friends that pray behind your back!?
Who wants friends that will pray with you and for you?
Let’s bless one another and pray as much as possible!!!

These ladies left their homes to pray together and share some time to just be themselves!

Would you love a girls’ night out with women who s Would you love a girls’ night out with women who share your faith, but you aren’t quite sure how to make that happen?

If you’re seeking Catholic friendships without losing fun, a Prayer Wine Chocolate gathering is exactly what you (and other women in your parish!) didn’t know you needed.

And now, starting this kind of group at your own parish is easy, with the Prayer Wine Chocolate Parish Leader Kit! You don’t need to be an event planner, have a background in theology, or know a whole bunch of people in your parish to get started — you just have to be willing to say “yes” to the Lord’s invitation to get the ball rolling, and we’ll walk you through the rest!

We created a digital kit which you can get BUT grab the FREE resource first (huge thank you to Jessica from @sallykpub who designed it, to @vacationlearning_blog who inspired the movement and @dellamadonnarosaries who sponsored it)

COMMENT FRIENDS if you want to learn more!!

This isn’t a formal Bible study that’s intimidating or involves lots of homework you don’t have time for. It’s simply a low-prep, easy to run, and inviting format to gather Catholic women together in fun, conversation, and prayer. Your future faith friends are waiting to meet you — the Prayer Wine Chocolate Parish Leader Kit will help you make that happen!

Thank you @whispersofloveandfaith Tammi for your recent review!!

“ I bought one of Amy’s journals for my daughter when she was 12. Each page encourages them to be the best version of themselves. I love how this journal appeals to both the introvert/extrovert and the artistic/non-artistic. There’s so much for everyone in this journal.”

Why is it that girls can be SO MEAN!??? When I was Why is it that girls can be SO MEAN!???
When I was a “tween” I longed to fit in with the other girls that shared my interests… but, I was not welcomed.

It hurt. It hurt a lot.

I wondered why… why did they not want to be my friend?
Why wasn’t I considered “cool”?

I asked my mom… and her advice to me was, “Just Be Yourself “.

I know she wanted to help me… but I wish she not only said that, but handed me this book too.

That is why I wrote it.

God DOES have plans and talents unique to every person… but when we are young we are still discovering His call for us.

My Catholic faith saved me.

The wisdom of Our Lord and the Saints that surrendered their lives to Him are so helpful.

And the best part… learning this can be enjoyable!!!
If you know a young girl around the ages of 10 to 13 who is struggling… give them this book!

Buy it from me this week and I’ll mail it with a sticker and a holy card!

I highly recommend you add fun pens, markers, washi tape and other things found in a journal kit!
She’ll love it… and you will too!

Move over mean girls… our God is bigger than that drama!
