Oh, Dearest Mother, Sweetest Virgin of Altagracia, our Patroness. You are our Advocate and to you we recommend our needs. You are our Teacher and like disciples we come to learn from the example of your holy life. You are our Mother, and like children, we come to offer you all of the love of our hearts. Receive, dearest Mother, our offerings and listen attentively to our supplications. Amen.

We use the Dore illustrations all the time...I shrink them down a bit and the kids use them in their Bible notebooks...I ended up gettting the book from Dover for ease in printing...but that was BEFORE I knew I could get them on line...

Thank you Stef!

Thank you, that is a neat resource. I may print some out for our Bible history.   

Blessings,

I was looking at them online and they seem so faded and like they would not print out as very sharp images. Any tips on printing them up nicely? And which download from the list did you click on to get the best quality images?

you're right Theresa, some of them are faded. what i do in those cases is sharpen them in our graphics software, and/or erase gray areas so the kids can color them in. or i just find a new graphic. dover has an old testament clip art book that i just ordered, and then found this:

Thank you Stef for the alert and I have to

I started downloading and dh came up and asked, "What are you doing?" "Downloading Dores Visual Bible Pictures!" says I. "We have had it for years!" said dh   "Oh! .....great! " I managed to say.

Well I'd still be in the dark about that if not for this posting!!
