With May right around the corner, I thought I'd give you some great ideas for Mother's Day and First Holy Communions.
First off, if you've never read (or in this case, heard) "The King of the Golden City" by Mother Mary Loyola, then you have to get a copy of this CD for yourself, too! A good friend of mine, who is among many other things, a Catholic singer and songwriter, dramatically reads this story of the king and his friend, a young girl named Dilecta. This is a wonderful allegory of all of the Sacraments, but makes a great story for those receiving Jesus for the first time. Click here to order your copy for yourself or for gift giving!
If you need some new ideas for Mother's Day, why not check out our goat milk soap site. We have some wonderful smelling soaps that your mother, grandmother, aunt, etc. will just love. The goat's milk is what makes the soap so rich and great for your skin. The essential oils are what make them smell so wonderful. You can click here to check out our great gift ideas.
Finally, for the somewhat harried homeschooling mother on your list (maybe that is even you - so if it is, bookmark this page and email it to your hubby and kids), why not give a gift that will help organize her day and bring joy to her life? You can click here to get all the details and order your copy in time for Mother's Day.
I hope that gives you some new and interesting ideas for your May gift giving. We would love to have you share this information with your friends and on your social media sites. Small businesses are what keep this country going, so support a small business whenever you can!

Hi Laura,
ReplyDeleteI was wondering if you might mention our Hand in hand with Jesus Faith Journal for a unique and faith-filled Sacrament gift!

We also have a small Catholic family business with a little shoppe at www.ArmaDei.blogspot.ca selling Catholic teaching tools and gifts.
Thanks for promoting small businesses!
