Ora et Labora

by | Sep 21, 2017 | Catholic T-Shirts, St. Benedict | 7 comments

A study break (enjoying the smoke free air after our morning rain), Latin II (with a peek at his current LEGO creation still in progress), and the boys’ August box from Catholic T-Shirt Club!
We are looking forward to the September box which should be arriving soon and will feature Our Lady of Fatima and the 100th Anniversary of the Apparitions.

    Those are REALLY nice t-shirts you've shown from the Catholic T-shirt Club and I would love to purchase the September box of Our Lady of Fatima/100th Anniversary. Do you know if it's possible to purchase just one box or must you enroll in the program? Thanks for letting me know 😉

    I'm usually not a huge fan of box subscriptions, and wasn't sure how we'd like this one, but it's been such a hit and all the shirts so far have been really great! According to their FAQ page, there is "no long-term commitment. You may cancel your subscription at any time for any reason." so you could sign up now and then cancel after you receive the Our Lady of Fatima box if you decide not to continue.

    Thank you for the reminder, Alyssa! I'm just starting to find a little time online and my inbox is a mess. I wasn't able to respond when they arrived and they were quickly buried… I'll go dig them out and get back to you now! 🙂

Prayer of Mothers

Father in heaven, grant me the grace to appreciate the dignity which you have conferred on me. Let me realize that not even the Angels have been blessed with such a privilege—to share in your creative miracle and bring new Saints to heaven. Make me a good mother to all my children after the example of Mary, the Mother of your Son. Through the intercession of Jesus and Mary I ask your continued blessings on my family. Let us all be dedicated to your service on earth and attain the eternal happiness of your kingdom in heaven. Amen.

A Little About Me

Hi! I'm Jessica, a Roman Catholic wife and home educating mother to our nine children. I was home educated myself, along with my eleven younger siblings. I have a special devotion to St. Therese, through whom I have been given much help and many blessings--the beautiful "Shower of Roses" that she has sent my way! Here I will record a few of the blessings I treasure. Please remember that what you see here is just a little glimpse at our lives, so please say a prayer for us, as we continue to strive for holiness.
