We venerated relics, and made 3rd class relics! Learn more here.
We also talked about the relics at Holy Cross.
Breakout Options:
Saints & Sacraments card game
This is a print-and-play card game and the instructions are available here.
Coco & Catholicism True or False game
Marshmallow sugar skulls
In honor of Dia de los Muertos (see the bulletin board content here), we used food-grade markers and decorated sugar skull designs on marshmallows!
Ofrendas
We made “ofrendas,” or offerings: little home altars to celebrate those who have died. Print and decorate yours here.
Meet the Saints
One of the bulletin board was covered with icon cards. We learned about icons, and then chose a saint to write a mini-biography about.
Eucharistic Miracles
To celebrate the Eucharistic Revival, one of the bulletin boards will feature a different Eucharistic Miracle story from Blessed Carlo Acutis’s website. This week, we learned about a miracle that happened in Mexico in 2006.
Candy Dice
We used leftover candy to play a round of Candy Dice: dump all the candy in the middle. Then take turns rolling and drawing until all the candy has been passed out!
