Sanctus Simplicitus

This file folder game was inspired by the book Martin's Mice by Sister. Mary Margirete written in 1954. It's a great story that shows how we can love both our neighbor and God's creations when we do the will of God! This file folder game helps the children remember more the story in the book by subtracting mice and thus there is less mice in the Church! Less mice to eat the priests clothes and food and they are all happy in the barn where their friend Martin feeds them! Feel free to share, link up and pass around this file folder game. God bless!

I'm a bit slow in taking and sharing a picture from our Feast of St. Linus celebration. In all honesty the only reason I took a picture was because I was chaging our domestic altar for the Feast of the Holy Rosary. We used a red cloth to signify St. Linus' martrydom along with the red glitter and paper behind his holy card. The lilies are purity along with the white color. We glued a print out of St. Linus to a round wooden medalion that has a hole drilled through the top and I'll string these so we can put them on our Christmas tree this year. Also pictured is the Cross of St. Brendan that we made (cardboard and glitter) for our history studies. We were reading about the Voyage of St. Brendan for our American History. They also have string attached so we may add them to our Christmas tree. It was a fun little celebration!
