Ascension Press

Highly recommend their Great Adventure Bible (See this post for who needs it: 5 People on Your Gift List that Need a Bible)

Ascension has the perfect Stocking Stuffer for you husband, Dad and brother – the newly published

Pocket Guide to Prayer.

Many men know they should pray more or would like to increase their time in prayer, but are not sure where or how to start. This book will help tremendously and simply.

Pocket Guide to Prayer is a beautiful, inspiring book written by Edward and Beth Sri, with contributor Fr. Mark-Mary Ames, CFR, that gives anyone confidence in knowing God and building a relationship with him. As an “on-ramp” into understanding the various tools for prayer that the Church offers us, this pocket guide will help Catholics build a fulfilled and deeply satisfying prayer life. 

This short but complete guide helps Catholics enter into prayer with more consistency and devotion. It empowers anyone on their faith journey to prioritize daily conversation with God.

A great new option for tweens and young teens who really want to understand the Bible and feel that it is relevant in their lives: Biblical Heroes: Stories of Faith and Courage

Through exploring these timeless narratives, readers not only gain a deeper understanding of the Bible’s stories and key figures, but also learn valuable lessons about courage, compassion, and faith.

3 BOOKS FROM ASCENSION PRESS:
POCKT GUIDE TO PRAYER
MY FIRST INTERACTIVE MASS BOOK
BIBLICAL HEROES: STORIES OF FAITH AND COURAGE BY MARK HART

Our family’s favorite kids books from Ascension:

My First Interactive Mass Books (highly recommend for little boys ages 3 to 6)

Donuts After Mass: a Tale About Walking With Jesus (my 7 year olds LOVE this and it was much enjoyed by their older brother too!)

Kolbe & Co. Rosaries for the whole family!

We prayed the Rosary as a family the other day and by the end of it my oldest son held up the string where all the beads WERE before we started. The beads had all fallen off.

I had already been thinking about Kolbe & Co’s fidget Rosary for kids – and this made me think, “YEP, we need those”!

Get the kids you love a fidget Rosary or a Glow in the Dark Rosary!

Use coupon code AMY10 for 10% off when you shop at Kolbe & Co!!!

Fidget Rosary from Kolbe & Co. Silver beads and green rope

The owner of Kolbe & Co., Erica Maze, is a Catholic convert, wife and mother who’s goal is to create items to help people remember to take a moment during their busy days to PRAY, and always be able to have their Rosary with them!

Shining Light Dolls

Whenever you shop from Shining Light Dolls, make sure you include the coupon code PRAYERWINECHOCOLATE

Shining Light Dolls has introduced some new toys this year, and my neighbor and I have decided one of these new gifts is NOT just for kids! There are Jumbo Plushes and I like to call them Catholic Squishmallows! I am going to buy many I think!

Shining Light Doll Plushes are great for all ages. The tiny ones would make a great addition to a tween gift bundle – along with the Be Yourself Journal and some other Catholic goodies!

The newest gift option over at Shining Light Dolls are interlocking puzzle brick sets (called Catholic Brick). They are similar to lego sets and they are for older kids! Do you know anyone who loves playing with Legos? This is a great gift option for him or her! One is included in this giveaway contest!

I am also loving the puzzles for toddlers and my 7 year old son keeps telling me how much he wants the Wooden Catholic Church Playset!

Definitely take a look around the Shining Light Dolls website and grab some really fun toys for your young and young at heart loved ones! (don’t forget the coupon code PRAYERWINECHOCOLATE)

Catholic Christmas Gifts Prayerwinechocolate.com

Be a Heart

Be a Heart has some fantastic gifts for girls who love crafts and for little ones who still tend to put toys in their mouths and definitely still wear bibs!

Plus, I enjoy some of Be a Heart’s products too. I love their belt bag, their standing desk calendar and their journals!

The Marian Wristlet is gorgeous – great gift for teens, young adults and women!

The Catholic Fruit of the Spirit Wooden Puzzle is currently sold out, BUT is included in this giveaway! Don’t forget to enter!!!

Daughter, age 7: Make your own Rosary kit (Saint Therese’) from Be a Heart and a fidget Rosary from Kolbe & Co.

Kingdom Come Co.

GALACTIC GLORY STARSHIP TOY; SAYS HE DETERMINES THE NUMBER OF THE STARS AND CALLS THEM EACH BY NAME

The mission of Kingdom Come Co. is to help children connect with their faith in a fun and meaningful way. This Catholic small business designs and sells high-quality clothing, toys, and other products that incorporate religious themes and messages in a modern and appealing style.

I love the toys for babies, toddlers and pre-school aged children! Take a look at this Galactic Glory Starship: Wooden Shape Sorter toy!!!

With its innovative design, the Galactic Glory Starship offers two toys in one. Firstly, the bottom half is a shape sorting toy, perfect for developing your child’s problem-solving skills and hand-eye coordination. Secondly, the top half is an abacus, which encourages counting and helps develop fine motor skills.

The Galactic Glory Starship wooden shape sorter toy features inspiring Bible verses that remind children of God’s power and wisdom. Additionally, one side of the toy displays Psalm 147. The verse reads “He determines the number of the stars and calls them each by name.”

This shop has SO MANY toys to choose from – plus, fun apparel too! This Saint Nick shirt I plan on ordering today!

12th & Blossom

SILENT NIGHT EARRINGS 3" FROM HOOK TO BASE

12th & Blossom is my FAVORITE SHOP for earrings!!!! If you shop from this incredible business, use coupon code AMYBROOKS for 15% off!!!

12th and Blossom creates joyful Catholic designs for a life in bloom. From art prints to jewelry to apparel and more, our gifts showcase the simple beauty of Catholic faith and devotions.

If you have a woman on your list – head to this shop and start adding to cart!

PIETA PAPERIE

My husband and I are swooning over this shop! Catholic wax seals!!?? Yes please!!!

The Founders and creators at Pieta Paperie wants you to know this:

“We create stationery for the sacraments. Our mission is to help Catholics evangelize their loved ones through beauty.”

I met the owners of Pieta Paperie at an event last year and they are just lovely, young Catholics! I love so many of the seals they offer – it’s really difficult to pick just one!

CATHOLIC GIFT IDEAS FOR FAMILY MEMBERS: MOM AND SON

For Mom: Jewelry from 12th & Blossom and Telos; Prayer Wine Chocolate shirt and tumbler; socks from Sock Religious

For Son: Fidget Rosary (or glow in the dark Rosary) from Kolbe & Co.; Be Yourself Journal and Biblical Heroes book from Ascension; Shirt from Sock Religious; toy from Shining Light Dolls.

Telos Art Shop

My favorite necklace shop – and apparently also my daughter’s favorite necklace shop!

My seven year old daughter chose a necklace listed in the Cozy Catholic Christmas Guide for herself and I think it’s the third year in a row my daughter has chosen to put Telos on her list!

Telos is on my list too :). I have my eye on a necklace and a ring!

The simple, small but powerful, Miraculous Medal necklace I wear daily is from Telos (pictured above).

Sock Religious – not just socks!

If you’ve read my gift guides before, you probably know I love Sock Religious Socks!!! The “no-show” socks are my personal favorite!

But, their shirts are literally THE BEST! I love how this business combines humor with evangelization.

I mean, “Don’t be a loser” on a shirt with Saint Anthony???????? Take my money!!

I find that shopping Catholic for my husband and other men is challenging, but this business makes it easier.

My husband will be getting one of these shirts this year!!!

*** Husband, brother, Catholic man gift idea: Shirt from Sock Religious!!!***

Bonus idea: Give Catholic Christmas Cards out this year with the new business owned by the folks over at Sock Religious!! This new shop: OUR HOLY HOME, have given me a 35% off coupon code for you!

Yes, 35% off is you use the coupon code: AMYBROOKS

These cards allow you to insert your family photos, but unlike the secular businesses that do that, there are a variety of holy messages to choose from. Send a Christmas greeting that celebrates Christ in Christmas!

The Cozy Catholic Life

Ave maria GRATIA PLENA Rosary hanger

I have been admiring Rosary hangers at The Cozy Catholic Life all year! I think my favorite is the Divine Mercy one (it says “Jesus, I trust in You”, but they are all gorgeous!

I like this gift because I would hang it in my own home and it could be given as a family gift or to a newly married couple.

I also love the sweatshirts, and right now my favorite is the “Ugly Advent Sweater“!

The Cozy Catholic Life Shop has done a great job creating apparel for the whole family and resources that will help you this Advent and all year long. You’ll love the mugs too! Browse the whole shop and have fun filling your cart!

The Shop at Prayer Wine Chocolate

The Be Yourself Journals are still getting fantastic reviews!

William Hemsworth just wrote a whole article about the journal, in it he said:

“Amy did an incredible job of creating reflections that are not only challenging, but engaging. To be honest, the most seasoned Catholic can also benefit from the reflections. The book challenges our boys to become a saint, and challenges them to think about how that can happen. In addition to that, there is great material on how to apply Catholic theology in the real world.“

(Read the whole article on Patheos here)

And Whitney, owner of Abundantly Yours Rosaries, (new Rosary called the Vine Grower!!) left this review on Amazon last week:

“This journal is exactly what I would have spent hours using as a kid. It has tons of different Catholic resources to encourage prayer & help young girls establish a relationship with God. This is my new go to gift idea for first communion, and holidays!!“

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.

Cabbage.Patch. Diary. What I had v. what I needed… Cabbage.Patch. Diary. What I had v. what I needed…
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 😂!?

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!
