Mother of God, my mother,
make me love my neighbor

and much more,
because there is Christ in me.

Feast of the Holy Family.....December 27


Jesus, help us to follow the example
of your Holy Family.
May Mary and Joseph be near us
at the hour of death,
and that through You may we be found worthy to be received into our everlasting home.

Jesus, Mary and Joseph,
unite our families
in your love.

Feast of St. Stephen.....December 26



Called the Proto-Martyr because he was the first
to meet death by his steadfast preaching
of the truths of Christ's mission,
he must have been eloquent indeed,
since his hearers,
looking upon him,
thought they saw the face of an angel.
But he infuriated some of the people who stoned him for blasphemy.
His dying prayer obtained the conversion of St. Paul.
Saint Stephen, pray for us

O Come Let Us Adore Him.......December 25




A Child is born to us, a Son is given to us,
and the government is upon His shoulders,
and His name shall be: Wonderful, Counsellor, God, the Mighty One, Father of the world to come, Prince of Peace.


Pause to wonder, and let your heart sing, "Glory
to God in the highest.





Dear Friends,

May our loving Jesus bless each and everyone who takes a moment to look at this humble collection of holy cards. It is His grace that touched all the authors and saints who supply me with such beautiful words of grace and wisdom. The talent given to the artists who created such a variety of cards is also His gift to us. I hope you enjoy visiting as much as I enjoy bringing my hobby to you.


Thank you and Merry Christmas to all.

What we need most in order to make progress
is to be silent before this great God
with our appetite and with our tongue,
for the language he best hears is silent love.
