We've got LOTS of different Prayer Pillowcases--click here to see them all!
A chosen life of wandering barefoot and begging for food sounds pretty crazy, but that’s exactly the life Saint Francis chose. After giving up his lofty lifestyle and leaving all of his possessions behind, Francis roved the Italian countryside to spread God’s message of love. Because of his affection for nature and all created things, our Saint Francis Prayer Pillowcase features pictures Saint Francis surrounded by animals.
God’s creatures helped Francis live the difficult lifestyle he embraced; when nobody wanted to hear him speak, he would preach to the animals and trees instead! The wolf in this image recalls the tale of the starving creature who once terrorized an Italian village, gobbling up its food and children. The people were furious and frightened at the violence. Francis turned this incident into a teachable moment by speaking to the villagers about God’s forgiveness. He made peace with the wolf and the villagers joined a pact: they would feed the wolf for the rest of its life and the wolf in return would protect their city.
We may not be terrorized by wild animals, but we all face our own challenges every day. The serene picture and companion Prayer of Saint Francis on this Prayer Pillowcase remind all ages to ask God for His guidance every day. It can also inspire us to search for the joy and peace that Saint Francis knew in loving and serving God.

from 6101 reviewsI bought these cards last year. I distributed to the Home School Co-op. The cards are always used an appreciated. Please keep up the GREAT ideas!
Wonderful way to teach the rosary to children!
perfect love them just what i needed
We are absolutely loving this game. Learning proper names of things plus my kids are noticing those same things at Mass and pointing them out!
I love this colouring book and it has really nice pages to color as well as telling the story of Saint Carlos. It is inspiring, informative and was a great price! I gave out 7 copies this morning at Children's Liturgy and might purchase more! I can't wait to hear how the kids like them next week!
great idea
I love it because it’s not a traditional for a card. I love the seven steps to sainthood that any young person or adult can read easily.
The coloring book with its wonderful illustrations and bi-lingual texts is a prayer answered! I hope you make MORE like this!
I loved this so much I bought a bunch for my PD!
Very Impressive and high quality!!
Gave to Catholic youth ministries to help our young understand the basic beliefs in living a peaceful life
Very powerful prayer to Saint Carlo Acutis!
Love these so much! My only regret is that I didn’t buy more.
Love him. What about making an altar girl?
I will ne giving this as a gift to our grandson in November. He is a fan of the Fr. Leopold bricks and items.
