Easter Season Prayer Cards

Focus on the first disciples this Easter season by downloading our free prayer cards. Each card includes a short prayer asking for the intercession of one of the disciples who encountered Jesus in the days and weeks after the Resurrection.

With prayers addressing St. Mary Magdalene, St. Peter, St. Thomas, and more, these cards draw our attention to the early disciples and serve as a great reminder that these holy men and women have lessons for our lives today.

Use the cards as a companion piece to the Easter Season with the First Disciples reflection booklet by Bob Burnham, author of Little Lessons from the Saints and Little Lessons from the Mystics.
