Remember Jesus Christ
What place does Christ have in modern society? Raniero Cantalamessa, the preacher to the papal household, asked that question in a series of Advent & Lent meditations presented to Pope Benedict XVI. He argues that the church must become "fishers" of men before becoming "shepherds" of men.
This beautifully illustrated book tells the story of the nativity through the lens of St. Joseph. Children will come to love & appreciate St. Joseph as they learn about his role in the story of Jesus' birth.
Ages 4-8. Makes a wonderful Advent or Christmas gift.
This book will delight both children &adults with its ability to relate Scripture & prayer to real life events. Each day's meditation, designed to be said after the lighting of the Advent wreath, features a Scripture passage based on the Mass readings. A reflection & prayer then relates the Bible passage to a story or event.
This charming board book takes children through the classic story of the Nativity. Along for the journey are 10 sheep, which children are encouraged to point out & number, strengthening their counting skills. Combine the real meaning of Christmas with a counting lesson & you've got the fun & engaging Ten Christmas Sheep!
