The Ultimate Guide to Catholic Mother’s Day Gifts (2023)

I’ve had my eyes on some Catholic gifts for quite some time now.

The truth is, many of us love to give Catholic gifts because we see how valuable, relevant and beautiful they are.

We see that they are not only fun to receive, but also prompt us to pray more often and help us feel closer to the Lord at times.

So, if you want to give your friend, your daughter or your mom (or your wife) a gift she will truly treasure, here are some amazing ideas!!!

Some of the products listed have been sent to me for an honest review. Others, I simply bought myself because all of them are just that lovely!

Give Your Mom a New Bible

Let’s take a moment to Praise the Lord that us Catholics are truly reading the Bible lately!

The Bible in a Year Podcast, ministries like Walking with Purpose and prayer journals like the Stay Connected Series have re-ignited a love for Sacred Scripture and it is simply beautiful!

Ascension Press, creator of The Bible in a Year Podcast, has an incredible option with The Great Adventure Catholic Bible*. This is the Bible Father Mike uses in each episode of the Bible in a Year podcast.

The narrative approach gives the big picture of salvation history and shows how everything ties together. The color-coded tools make it easy to read and easy to remember.

If she already has a few bibles, get her the Catechism of the Catholic Church from Ascension Press!

Catholic mugs and wine tumblers are great gifts!

I’m super excited to recommend the Prayer Wine Chocolate Wine Tumblers this year!

I went to an event last weekend that was BYO and I loved seeing how many women had brought wine tumblers with them instead of using plastic cups.

Personally, in the warmer months, I prefer white and rose’ over reds. This wine tumbler is ideal because it will keep those wines cold while you chat with your friends!

You can get both Pink and Purple wine tumblers – fill them with chocolates and add a bottle of wine for the perfect Prayer Wine Chocolate gift!

For my afternoon tea, I am loving my Catholic Coffee travel mug! Seriously, this keeps my tea hot when I’m on the go and it truly brings me joy! Use coupon code PRAYERWINECHOCOLATE for 15% so they know you heard about it from me!

Give your wife, friend and daughter beautiful Catholic Jewelry

Wearing Catholic jewelry is an incredible gift for two reasons.

Women are encouraged to dress up for many events (especially Mass) and wearing Catholic jewelry is a constant reminder to pray unceasingly, but is also a subtle way to evangelize.

The absolute best gift to give her is a Telos Quarterly Subscription Box!! Don’t worry if you are shopping last minute – she’ll get this gift in the mail and think of you several times this year!

Another idea is to gift her the Telos Trove Gift Box!!!

Featuring FIVE unique pieces from the Telos Art Collection! The Trove Box is valued at over $125, available for just $100.

Keep all the goodies for yourself or share with those you love. A great gift for teachers, birthdays, or Mother’s Day.

Lift up her heart by giving Inspiration Reading and Books

When I was down about life, I enjoyed reading uplifting stories from books like Chicken Soup for the Soul. The truth is, moms worry about things – and people. This fact makes me love the idea of giving a book like Amazing Grace for Mothers*.

Here’s the book’s description from Ascension:

Amazing Grace for Mothers will lift your heart and send your spirit soaring. You will laugh, you will cry, but most of all you will refresh your mothering through stories of love, inspiration, miracles, and God’s amazing grace. This collection of 101 stories will bring you the warmth and support of other women, all dedicated to the same glorious role – motherhood.

Cover of Whisper: Finding God in the Everyday

Whisper: Finding God in the Everyday* by Danielle Bean is another great book to give this year. My good friend, Katie, is becoming Catholic on Pentecost and she told me that this is a book has been wanting to read! Katie is a mom of three – 2 of her children are teenagers.

Catholic Candles are Hot Gifts this Year!

Whether the woman you’re shopping for is a devout Catholic – or you are hoping to rekindle faith in your loved ones, Catholic candles are great gifts!

And for those who, like me, love prayer, wine and chocolate – I’m excited to share this Wedding at Cana candle!!!

There are a few other scents I have my eye on in the Pax Rosa Candle shop, check them out and see if you or your loved one would really be fired up to pray by one of these gifts!

I gifted myself some Corda candles earlier this year – I love that they do fundraisers!!!

Catholic Moms both need and want clothing and apparel!

I truly love my navy blue Prayer Wine Chocolate sweatshirt and my Prayer Wine Chocolate hoodie!

For the warmer months, the navy looks great with white pants! Take a look at all the options for colors!

For the hoodie, I have the black, but I’m looking at the light grey as more of a summer months color (for those chilly nights and when the air is really cranked up)!

Don’t forget, all moms need socks! Love the ankle socks (no show) from Sock Religious!

Catholic Moms love Catholic Home Decor

On my list is something very close to home . . . a sacred art painting that my son modeled for!!! I would love to have a print of this beautiful painting, matted and framed in my home!

Cena (Holy Family Gyclee Print)

What an absolute honor it was for our family – especially our son – to be invited to model as Jesus in this Holy Family painting!

Cena is a museum quality print of a reflection of the the simple moments of the Holy Family. St Joseph teaches the Christ Child about the passover, foreshadowing what is to come as they sit around the table peacefully together.

The artist and creator behind Visual Grace is Kate Capato. She describes herself as a Missionary of Beauty. She paints for Jesus, her first love and the One our hearts truly ache for . . .

See more of her art at visualgrace.org

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…

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

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!
