This Week’s Fave Liturgical Print

All Souls Day Prayer & Family Photos

For All Souls Day, I made a print using PicMonkey to display the photos of relatives who have recently died, along with The Faithful Departed prayer. We placed the photo on our little prayer table in the family room (next to where we eat) and we recite the prayer during our nightly family prayer. We’ll continue to do so for the month of November.

A couple people asked me about the print when I showed it on Instagram, so I downloaded the photo to Google Drive. You could download the photo template and use PicMonkey to make your own version, like I did, or you can simply print out a copy and write in the name of your loved ones or even tape their photo(s) to it. You can do it now and use it for the remainder of November or save it for next year.

This Week’s Fave Photo Challenge

#rolgratitudechallenge

This month I’m focusing on being grateful, especially when I’m tempted to complain or focus on the negative. I’m doing a photo challenge for the month of November with no prompts, simply take a photo of something you’re grateful for and tag it #rolgratitudechallenge.

This Week’s Fave Journal

Lara Casey’s Write the Word Journal (Cultivate Gratitude)

I have long been a fan of Lara Casey’s Goal Planning and Powersheets, but she also has lovely Write the Word Scripture Journals.

Each day there is a Scripture verse for you to write. Writing it out helps to to not only remember it, but ponder it as you are writing. There is also space to journal or be creative. There are a number of different subjects for each journal (Hope, Joy, Prayer, Forgiveness, etc) but I chose to use the Gratitude Journal during November.

This Week’s Fave Subscription Box

Feast Day Box

Subscription boxes are big these days and you can pretty much find ones in any subject matter. In our house, we’ve purchased boxes for planner addicts (me), Disney lovers (me and Bella), and football fans (Packers – Brian & Chargers – Andrew). I’ve seen some really nice Catholic boxes, but they would have suited our family when the kids were younger.

The Feast Day box is both fun and spiritually uplifting. Each monthly box contains food items to help you celebrate a liturgical feast and a spiritual item to help you prayerfully celebrate the feast. It’s the best of both worlds and I love it. You can find the box that fits your price range and family size. We subscribe to the Memorial Boxes.

Here is the October Memorial Box.

Here is the November Memorial Box.

The food treats were eaten and enjoyed. The book is being read  and the candle is lit during our night prayers.

The Thanksgiving Cornucopia box just arrived int he mail so we’ll be doing a box opening on Instagram this weekend. 🙂

This Week’s Fave Spiritual Tool

Every Sacred Sunday Mass Journal

Of all the journals I have ever owned in my life, the Every Sacred Sunday Mass Journal has been the most life changing. I kid you not. I am the type of person who always absorbs information better when I am visually looking at it and not just hearing it audibly, so having the Mass readings is a must for me. Of course, I could have just followed along in the church missal, but with the journal I can underline, write notes in the margins and handletter favorite Psalms. The book also has a notes section, which I use to take notes about the homily. (No more zoning out or dozing off.) 😉 It’s really helps me to focus on the Mass, the homily and what the Holy Spirit is trying to teach me. I have friends who can’t take notes during Mass because they are wrangling babies and toddlers, but they love the Mass Journal because it gives them a chance to go over the Readings before Mass, or after, so they can still be blessed by studying God’s Word. The 2018-2019 Edition is available to pre-order. I bought one for me, and Bella asked for one as an early Christmas gift. Love it.

This Week’s Fave Non-Journaling Sunday Missal

St. Joseph Sunday Missal 2019

For the man and boys in our family, they don’t want a journaling Sunday missal. They wanted something small with the Mass readings. Brian has been using the St. Joseph Sunday Missal 2018 Edition this year and the boys really wanted to graduate from the Magnificat Magnifikid Missal, which we loved, into one like their father’s so Brian ordered a copy of the 2019 St. Joseph Sunday Missal for each of them. They only coast $1.99 at Amazon, so you can’t beat the price!

This Week’s Fave Necklace

Jane Eyre Quote Necklace

When I posted a photo on Instagram, a couple of you asked about the necklace I was wearing. It’s from the etsy shop AnnaAzure.

Jane Eyre is one of my favorite books and I love this quote, “Wherever you are is my home – my only home.” They have a lot of many other great book quotes. Check it out.

Okay, that’s it for now!

Those are my favorites of the week! What have you been enjoying?

Have a great weekend!
