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

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.

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!

What advice from Mother Teresa is your favorite? What advice would you add from Saint Teresa of Calcutta?

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!
