Receive, dearest Mother, our offerings and listen attentively to our supplications. Amen.

Does anyone have any ideas for a craft for Our Lady of Altagracia on January 21? I need to come up with something for our book club. We are reading the book A Gift of Gracias and would like to do something to correspond with that and I am just out of ideas . Any help would be appreciated.
A Gift of Gracias

Have you seen the new blog, Catholic Icing written by Lacy, a young Catholic mother? Her purpose is to pull together in one place some ideas and visuals for crafts and activites for feast days and seasons. I think of it as the Catholic Crafty Crow . There are so many great blog posts out there and this is a way to visually link them for insipration. Anyway, she did a recent compilation of ideas for the Feast of Our Lady of Altagracia. Includes ideas from Suzanne, Meredith, Dawn and others recognizable here.

I also know there are some ideas in an old thread here. I'll have to look for that.

Mary, Thank you for that site link. I have never seen that blog. It is like a gold mine!!
Joann, I think I might make that poster board with my own children. Very sweet.

Thanks for helping me out. I feel much better
