The simple yet eloquent pamphlet transcribed here was found among a collection of late 1800's holy cards.  
There is a printable version found here or on our July printables page.

Updated Catholic Planner and new free printables

3/9/2013

0 Comments

 

Updated Catholic Planner now available for Pre-Order!

Picture
We were unsure whether to reprint any more of the Complete Catholic Planner or not, and decided at last to go ahead and revamp it! 

We think you will love the new look and layout!

There are now nine sections as opposed to the original five. We have divided up the planner into 5 student sections, 1 family section, a "For the Love of God" section, a Monthly Planning Section as well as 48 weeks of Daily Lesson Planning pages. 
The student sections now have all the pages needed to plan their year from beginning to end all together in their own section - including preparing for the next year!
There are lovely black and white graphics gracing the pages throughout, plus some new forms to make it one of the most versatile planners out there!



Click here to read more about the planner and view some sample pages!


Pre-Order now for $24.95 for a limited time only. Regular price - $29.99


We hope to be shipping by the beginning of April.





We now have some new free printables up!

Picture
In our Lent section of Free Printables we have redone the Lenten Program and added another Lenten Sacrifice chart. A little late, but perhaps something to remember for next year.


Picture
We have added a new printable section entitled 'Purity'. There are certificates for both young men and young ladies who want to remain pure for Our Lord.

Coming Soon to Cascia Books! 
We are very happy to announce that one of our daughter's is putting together a beautiful newsletter dedicated to the virtues for your family to enjoy and use as a unit study or as a way to learn more about individual virtues and put them into practice. Hopefully there will be a new one each month, but there is no guarantee as she is a full-time student and a busy young lady. 


We wish you all a blessed Lenten season!

"If we wish to see any improvement in the state community or the family, the family must, in common with the Church, educate the children in Christianity. It is true that the hope of a better future is founded on a good, obedient youth." ~ St. John Vianney
