MAIDEN AND MOTHER
Devotions to the Blessed Virgin Mary throughout the Year
- Margaret R. Miles
This unique Marian devotional includes hymns, prayers, songs, ballads, litanies, and other
texts drawn from all centuries, bringing together a precious collection of texts from the
most ancient to modern. The selection is arranged under main headings for the seasons of
the Church’s year, with sub-sections covering all the major feasts of Our Lady plus
some others observed locally or still
popular. The months of May, dedicated to Mary, and October, the month of the Rosary, have
devotions arranged on the traditional pattern for different times of day. Brief
introductions to each feast and season are provided, with a note on the history,
significance, and liturgical celebration of each. The best-known medieval hymns and
prayers are given in their original Latin as well as English. The whole builds into a book
for private or small-group devotion to the Blessed Virgin that has no rival for
comprehensiveness and usefulness. It will appeal both to those who feel deprived of
traditional forms of devotion and to those who are conscious of the increasing
significance of the figure of the Virgin in today’s world. (Item #90751) $14.95

Pray
With Mary
A Child's Book of the Rosary
Nothing says "Catholic" like the rosary. That
familiar string of beads is a common identifier of our Catholic tradition of
honoring Mary, the Mother of Jesus. Because the rosary is such an integral
part of our Catholic heritage, every Catholic child deserves to know why we
pray it and how to pray it.
Activities engage the children in this hands-on tool for showing the
connections the rosary makes for us to Mary, God, the universal Church, and
the world. A total of 25 activities includes favorite formats like
dot-to-dot, coloring, decoding, rebuses, drawing, crossword puzzle, crafts,
and more.
Activities include:
|
• |
"Fill and Feel": Create a rosary with a pencil on the illustration
provided, then "feel the beads" by lightly touching the backside of
the page. |
|
• |
"A-maze-ing Faith": A three-way maze connects our hearts to God and
our actions to love. |
|
• |
"Creed Connections": Children learn the prayers of the rosary and
see the connections between those prayers, the Trinity, and the core
beliefs of our faith. |
