Our Favorite Gifts This Season
If you google “Cool Catholic Gifts,” your search results are typically…really not cool Catholic gifts, but just a bunch of lame sweatshirts and your basic rosary. So we want to help you out this season! Check out some of our favorite gifts below for your best friend, dad, and coworker!
Book of Psalms
In general, we love this store, but we just came across this beauty.
“The Psalms are a collection of poems and songs written by King David portraying the rawness of the human experience in relation to God. Follow along with King David’s journey of knowing God and being known by God in both the highs and lows of life in this visually captivating book.”
(And check out these just as beautiful Gospels! Make sure you do your research though regarding translations!)
Go Bravely: Becoming the Woman You Were Created to Be by Emily Wilson
Literally sitting over here pondering about what book to ask for for Christmas and here’s the answer! And it’s been in front of me for weeks. So excited to finally get my hands on a copy of Emily Wilson’s latest book, Go Bravely.
The excerpt reads, “As a young Christian woman, do you struggle with insecurities and feel bogged down by the pressures and expectations of society?…In Go Bravely, the Catholic musician and speaker offers twenty bits of advice that will equip you to tackle your deepest concerns about relationships, self-esteem, and dating while strengthening your faith at the same time.”
The Monk Manual
We’ve been loving watching this project take off this season, AND we especially love that it’s perfect for both men and women in its modern design. It’s the hottest gift this season for Catholics.
Drawing from the wisdom of monastic life, modern psychology and best practices in personal productivity, the Monk Manual provides a daily system that will help you find clarity, purpose, wisdom, and peace in the moments that make up your life.
Creatio Adventure
No matter where you or your loved one lives, consider donating money towards a mission trip, day adventure, or pilgrimage by our friends at Creatio. Create your own gift card and give your friend “credit” to help cover the cost of one of these trips that will change their lives. And when it comes to fundraising, every dollar counts.
Adventure in Nature. Journey in the Spirit.
Verso L’Alto Hat
Lindsay at JustLovePrints is full of awesome ideas, and we’re in love with this hat. Pier Giorgio Frassati is one of our favorite Holies, and you can learn more about him here. Check out all of the other great gift ideas she also has up, such as temporary tattoos, mugs, and prints!
Abbey Roast’s White Coffee Blend
For the blonde in your life, lol. I can say that because I’m both a blonde and was a barista. But this special roast meets that $15 secret Santa price tag easily, with room to spare!
The St. Jude Collection
Do you know someone who’s been through hell this year? Share the message of St. Jude with them with this beautiful collection by Quiet Light Creations. AND, like St. Jude’s message, this season is all about hope.
New Rug Line at In Honor Of Design
Starting at just $35, these rugs have got us SWOONING. Designed by Steubie graduates who now have six kids, IHOD has just started to build their online shop and we’re in love.
Daily Bread (Modern)
It’s a classic, and you can order the print all around the interwebs, but give it an updated look for your sister’s new home with a nice matted frame.
