With All Saints Day just around the corner, now is a good opportunity to look at ideas for additional resources for teaching about the saints. Loyola Press has just put together four Saints Retreats for children, done in the style of the well-known and much loved 3-Minute Retreats. Each brief saints retreat is an opportunity to learn more about a particular saint, learn about that saint’s relationship with God, reflect on discussion questions about the saint, and enjoy a prayer in honor of the saint. The four Saints Retreats focus on St. Nicholas, St. Kateri Tekakwitha, St. Frances Xavier Cabrini, and St. Andrew. Take a look: Saints Retreats for Children. Be sure to look at lots of other saints resources as well.

Thank you for sharing these 3 minute retreats about the saints. I enjoyed them-they helped me start the day on a positive note.
Josie, you’re welcome. They’re nice, aren’t they?
Hi, to all. I am a catechist in Abu Dhabi and would like your 3 minute retreat for children. I want to download it to use for my Grade 5 student every morning during the entire lenten season.
Appreciate your help.
