Sanctus Simplicitus

My apologies yet again, our readers are the best proof readers! Here is the corrected piece for Feb. 27th's Saint. It should be St. Gabriel of Our Lady of Sorrows not Our Lady of Snows. If you have not yet downloaded your Feb. pieces you do not need this correction as the file has been corrected. Thank you for your patience with this busy homeschool mom!

God bless!

Thanks to our many readers I have become aware of several things that needed to be corrected. I apologize for the inconvenience it may have caused anyone. Listed below are a few of the things that are NOW corrected on the files to download, if you downloaded these files previously (before 1-28-12) the corrected items are located below in this file. Anyone just now downloading is fine and all items are corrected. As always feel free to email and let us know if something needs fixed. God bless!

* The word "Mysteries" on the colored cards (green, gold, lavender) had a typo and is now fixed.

* There were several typos on the template for printing your own poster size calendar which is now fixed, please re-download it HERE

* St. Andrew listed for Feb. is not St. Andrew the Apostle but St. Andrew Corsini which has also been corrected and is part of the below file.

The next months bulletin board pieces are ready to download! I separated the files so that those of you who have already downloaded some pieces will not get repeats and if you need to reprint something it will hopefully make it easier. So this month there are MORE files but hopefully less work for you. All pieces can also now be found on the page dedicated to the Liturgical Year Bulletin Board.

*Saint's Pieces for February (numbered calendar pieces)

* Title Pieces for the Month of February 2012

* 2012 Liturgical Year Wheel (for those who have not yet downloaded or need the UPDATED Wheel)

* Rosary Mysteries (For those who have not yet downloaded or need the corrected pieces ... sorrowful mysteries were previously in the wrong order)

* Lent/Advent Pieces - Lavender

Some of our readers are having troubles finding a pre-made calendar template that is laminated for their bulletin board. I made one up that you can download via .jpeg image file or PDF file to have printed some where. Costco and Wal-mart both do printing for the 16x20 for under $6. It is cheaper to find one at a local school supply store but if all else fails here is another option! Also if you are looking for the 2ft by 3 ft Bulletin Board Wal-mart has them HERE.

If this is the first time you are putting your Liturgical Year Bulletin Board together please visit the original instructions.

1.) Download all of the pieces listed above, or at least the new pieces if you have already done so with the Liturgical Wheel & Rosary Mysteries.

2.) Cut out all pieces. Laminate the numbered pieces for the calendar, the circle pieces, the piece that says 'Today's Rosary Mysteries are:' and the piece that says 'This Sunday is:'.

3.) Place velcro dots on the back side, making sure that they are the opposite of those dots you have placed on your calendar. Then place on the calendar, the 1st starts on a Wed.

4.) Staple your Feb. Title piece to the top of the calendar/bulletin board.

5.) Using three Popsicle sticks, trim them down a bit so they will fit inside of your weekly pockets without covering up your calendar. Tape your laminated circle pieces (today, tomorrow, yesterday) to the Popsicle sticks.

6.) Fold the weekly pockets according to the original directions, place the pockets under the appropriate week day near your calendar.

8.) Cut out the 'extras' for Ash Wedensday, Ember Days, Septuegeisma ect. Use some rolled tape or tacky puddy to place them on your calendar. These dates always change so this makes them easily moveable.

7.) Finish by placing your daily Rosary mystery card and your weekly Sunday card up on either side of your already placed Liturgical Wheel and you are set to go! May you have a blessed February and most profitable start to the Lenten season!! Ash Wednesday is on February 22nd!

These are a little late, it's been busy around here for updating and making new pieces! I'll continue to do my best to get these out on time. If you didn't already see the post, there were some changes made to the January Calendar pieces for the Liturgical Year Bulletin Board.

Here are the GREEN pieces that will be used for the Time After the Epiphany and the Time After Pentecost. Time After the Epiphany this  year (2012) goes from now until the 4th of February. Lavender pieces will be out in the next week or so for the Septuegesima/Lenten Season.

Make sure you download the NEW 2012 Litugical Wheel
If you have yours from the Advent post or from the main DIY post then there is a good chance that it is the 2011 wheel as it didn't get updated until just recently. ALSO on this new download for the Liturgical Wheel is a small addition. A generous reader pointed out that I left off the 2nd Sunday After the Epiphany, my deep apologies and it is now added to this download and updated on all the others on the site. ONE MORE thing that has been changed is that the same reader also pointed out that on the sorrowful mystery card the 2nd/3rd mystery were not in the correct place. This has been fixed, the piece is included on the download above for those of you who only need the correction. Any one downloading for the first time will have all of the correct pieces in one file. The download for ALL of the January Pieces can be found here and the SAINTS for the month can be found here. As always they are included on the download page.
