Meet Jessica

Owner of SweetLittleOnesShop on Etsy

Profile Pic Square

Hello, I’m Jessica, wife to Jim, mom to 3 sweet little ones through the blessing of adoption, and the artisan behind Sweet Little Ones Shop. God’s truth is seen in beauty – and I love to share this through creating beautiful and meaningful printable art. As a wife, mother, and business owner, I can easily get wrapped up in the busyness of life – I often need to be reminded to pause, pray, and listen to God’s call for me in the big and the little moments. So the printables I design serve as beautiful visual reminders to inspire all of us as Catholic women to nurture and deepen our faith in our (sometimes very hectic!) everyday lives.

I’m so excited to include one of my favorite printables in this giveaway! This St. Catherine of Siena quote is a perfect reminder that God is calling us to holiness exactly through our unique set of gifts and experiences that He gave us.
This would be perfect to decorate your home or prayer altar or give as a gift to a fellow sister in Christ. You can purchase yours here for $5: SweetLittleOnesShop

Shop SaongJai

SmartSelectImage_2017-07-06-23-01-18

My name is Aleesa and there is this sweet little shop called SaongJai {sounds like= song jeye} that I run. It means two hearts in Thai and called that name for the two hearts of Jesus and Mary also my sister and I love to make rosaries together and that is how this handmade Catholic goods shop all started out.

Like SaongJai on facebook at: www.facebook.com/saongjai
This awesome gunmetal rosary can always be purchased for the fellow in your life. It is super sturdy, masculine, and simple. The heavy hematite beads are stone and gently warm up as you hold them and pray almost feeling as if the rosary is becoming a part of your hands just as the mysteries you are meditating on should be absorbing into your soul!

Meet Jessica Connolly

As a Catholic convert myself and new to the idea of liturgical seasons, I was inspired to create modern calendars to help me, my family, and other families navigate the wealth of daily resources available through the Church. In the past year I have also opened an Etsy storefront and a Peter’s Square shop to sell liturgical calendars, sacred art calendars, fine art, and jewelry.

Skinny-LitCal-2018-mockup-crop.jpg

Our 2017-2018 monthly calendar offers seasonal liturgical colors, daily readings, feast days, and sacred art by contemporary and classical artists. By celebrating liturgical seasons at home, we can experience the full “mystery of Christ from Incarnation and Nativity through his Ascension, to Pentecost and the expectation of the blessed hope of the coming of the Lord” (Catechism 1194).

You can learn more about about all of our liturgical calendars at www.liturgicalcalendars.com We offer a yearly calendar with seasonal colors included, an interactive yearly calendar for kids (or adults) who like to complete the calendar colors themselves, and a variety of other prints with uplifting quotes. We also offer bulk pricing for bookstores, classes, and groups.

Meet our Retreat Speaker: Sarah Dickerson! Not onl Meet our Retreat Speaker: Sarah Dickerson!
Not only is Sarah one of the Founders of @msc_highschool Martin Saints Classical High School, a Master of Theology as well as Theology of the Body and an experienced lecturer… she is also no stranger to Prayer Wine Chocolate Retreats!
But none of those reasons is why she was chosen to give a talk at this year’s retreat.
She was chosen because Sarah would put the best Zen  Master to shame (thank you Colleen for this incredible description).
When I want advice, I often go to Sarah.
If you know Sarah and you are asked to think of the calmest person you know… you think of Sarah.
Sarah has 7 children.
Sarah works, volunteers, entertains and often picks up adjunct positions at the archdiocese’s seminary.
Yet through it all, she remains Calm in Christ.

There are still a handful of spots left for the 2026 Prayer Wine Chocolate Retreat. Registration will close when spots fill up or on Thursday… whichever comes first!

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 😂!?
