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!

If you’re looking for advice… let me introduce you If you’re looking for advice… let me introduce you to Mother, I mean Saint, Teresa of Calcutta…

Mother Teresa gives the BEST advice! Smile at one Mother Teresa gives the BEST advice!

Smile at one another!!!

Never worry about numbers. Help one person at a time and always start with the person nearest you.

Give yourself fully to God! He will use you to accomplish great things!

When I discovered this in my basement, my daughter grabbed it and ran off… I still have some speed left in me. “Secrets” recovered 😅.

Writing in a diary or a journal is much different than writing and sharing on social media… especially for kids and teens. Dr. Leonard Sax (author of The Collapse of Parenting) shares in his talks how writing in a diary or journal is living… but writing and posting is performing.

The young need the space to write out of the public eye.

Also… remember the Cabbage Patch Kids 😂!?

If you are planning to visit the @padrepioinc in B If you are planning to visit the @padrepioinc in Barto, PA, I highly recommend you add on a stop at @the_peppermint_stick !
We needed a low cost, fun one-day out with our family, and this was great!
 
The Padre Pio museum and the shrine grounds are a great place to pray and learn more about this anything but boring Saint!
And I have to say we all had a blast looking at the nostalgic candy, ordering our ice cream and playing pinball at The Peppermint Stick!

Padre Pio, pray for us!!!

In 2016 I listened to Father Pio Mandato recount t In 2016 I listened to Father Pio Mandato recount this story and I couldn’t help but laugh 😂.

Father Pio Mandato was able to visit Padre Pio a few times as a boy with his Grandfather. He remembered how Padre Pio in the presence of some Capuchins and laymen, Padre Pio enjoyed the fellowship and he loved to tell jokes and make his friends laugh.

What a joy to know that those in heaven have a sense of humor!

Saint Padre Pio, pray for us!

When I was growing up my friend used to invite me When I was growing up my friend used to invite me to go to “fellowship” with her at their church. That was not a word or idea I was familiar with… 

Later I was taught that faith is a gift… but I didn’t truly understand that until it was faith that was keeping me hanging on…
Having friends to share prayer intentions with and who will not only pray with you but laugh and become your community is priceless,
5 Stars: Highly recommend!

Let us pray together for our priests! In the name Let us pray together for our priests! In the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, Amen.

Saint Teresa of Avila is credited with this quote: “Behind each priest, there is a demon fighting for his fall. If we have the language to criticize them, we must have twice as much to pray for them”.

The parish I have been attending for over 20 years has always been blessed either such wonderful priests. I am so grateful, and if I’m being honest, quite sad to see this one go on to another assignment.

Let us fervently pray for all Catholic priests… for they truly help us know and love Jesus Christ more.

God bless Father Windle … and @irishclan7 we loved the ice cream truck at his farewell. Our twins had actually made up a song they would sing on pancake breakfast days… perhaps one day I’ll convince them to sing it for you or for Father Windle 😉 

If you’ve read this far, comment the name of a priest you are praying for!
