Faith Study Resources
The Saints
Learning about the saints is an excellent way to learn about God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit. The resources below can help to enrich your child's understanding of these people who have encountered our Lord in many different ways. In a day and age when singers, stars, and athletes are considered role models by many youth, the study of our Catholic heroes is more important than ever.
Saint Resources:
"Considering that when the Saints lived in this world they were at liberty to roam the earth, do you really think that in Heaven God would have them tied to a post?"
-St. Thomas More

Games that teach about the Saints
We love learning and teaching using games, no matter what the topic or material to be covered. Learners will really enjoy getting to know about God's holy heroes, the saints with these fun interactive games.
Saint Learning Cards
Our Learning Cards are always a big hit with our children as well as those of our visitours. They encourage learning about the saints in little chunks so that information can patiently penetrate little hearts and souls. These research type cards can be used by multiple age groups. They are a great tool to use in your homeschool as well as for catechists to use in their CCD or Religious Education classes.
Write Saint Mini-books
Who ever thought that such a little book could bring out such big ideas for children of any age? Who knew that you could get so much information onto just a few little pages? Who knew that you could write, draw or prompt learners to think with fun and energy? We did! We have made it a way of learning in our homeschool and the lives of the saints match perfectly with our My Book Mini-books. Visit our Bible Mini-books resource page to bring the learning to life in your homeschool. These little books are perfect for lapbooking, notebooking or other little projects too!
Saint Studies
Learn about the saints using our learning projects or mini-unit studies all about the saints. Whether you are introducing children to the Doctors of the Catholic Church or expanding their knowledge and recognition on saints of different countries or time periods, our saint study resources are inviting, fun, and very effective. Our projects are designed to be used with resources you already have in your home, local library, or find on the internet.
Printable Saint Trading Cards
Since the late 1800's, the idea of trading cards has been used to help focus public attention on sports. Using pictures and small amounts of information, these little cards brought life and factual data about favourite sports heroes into the hands of adults and children alike. We thought that we should focus the attention of the littlest hands onto the real heroes of the world; the faithful intercessors, teachers, and mentors of our faith, the saints. These easy to print cards are easy to make, useful for all ages, and great for teaching at home, in CCD Religious Education classes, or even Bible study sessions.
