Greatness of the Lord:
We challenge you to memorize this Bible Verse of the Day: Luke 1:38
Read the Saint story with your child and have them color the picture below
St. Dominic Savio
There was a young boy who became a saint at a very young age. He had 9 brothers and sisters.
When he made his First Communion, he wrote special notes in his journal about trying to obey God and following his ways.
He also wanted to say “Yes” to God just as Mary did. He wanted to go to confession and to Mass often.
Jesus and Mary were his very best friends.
When Dominic was 12 years old, he met St. John Bosco. St. John Bosco was a great example of holiness for Dominic.
Dominic was friendly to everyone, cheerful, and obedient. He became very ill and died at the age of 14.
We can pray to St. Dominic Savio to help us to say “Yes” to God.
St. Dominic Savio, PRAY FOR US
HAIL MARY POSTERS
Learn the Hail Mary with these Prayer Posters. Kids can color them and post them up.
