Very Young Catholics in Brazil follows children during Holy Week and Easter!
Three children are our guide to the life of their beautiful parish, with its "Stairway of the Three Saints." Their funny chatter and the beauty of their Brazilian coastal city offer a sunshiny backdrop for the Santa Semana, the Brazilian name for Holy Week.
With an appropriately sober tone for the ceremonies that occur over Holy Thursday and Good Friday, including the washing of the feet, the institution of the Eucharist, and a reenactment of the Stations of the Cross. The story continues through the exuberant celebration of Easter Sunday and beyond!
Pssst- print this companion Seek & Find activity sheet so your kids can hunt through the pictures while you read!
Bonus content includes:
- the liturgical year,
- traditional Easter greeting (and response),
- and more!

from 6138 reviewsAm going to share with my granddaughter so she'll know to pray for me.
This is a wonderful idea!!
I purchased a pack to give to our senior altar boys. The reception, so far, has been moderately acceptable. I expect more of a response as they have an opportunity to examine them in private, especially as we get closer to All Souls Day.
Beautifully arranged and explained images, even for very young children! My three year old will pore over this book, up close and personal, for ten minutes! It doesn't sound like a long time, but very impressive for his attention span. Thank you, Holy Heroes!!!
Getting ready for All Saints/Souls days!! As St Padre Pio would say, "We got souls to get out of Purgatory". We are the Church Militant. Let's get to it!
Although this scorecard is a marvelous teaching aid for kids, I was happy to buy the two pack so my adult sister and I could use it to do the First Five Saturdays at the same time. (This way, I don't have to keep reminding her about the steps.) :)
These cards are an invaluable teaching aid, for young people, as well as adults!
Beautifully done and convenient reminders of our duty to pray for the Holy Souls in November and of the plenary indulgences available. I am giving them to my senior group at church next week.
As new to the faith, I didn't know that such a thing as plenary indulgences for the holy souls in purgatory existed. I found this card to be extremely helpful in providing the guidance needed to participate in this. I appreciated having the instructions and a place to track my intensions. Also the artwork is gorgeous.
These prayer cards are very nice. I am giving them to my grandchildren.
Incredible book! I buy it for everyone who is having children!
I passed them out at Mass today
Very in formative, no long discussion, nicely listed requirements.
Thank you for giving us a way and reminder to pray for the Holy souls in purgatory.
Love these cards!
