Seasonal – Lent/Easter Simon of Cyrene and the Legend of the Easter Egg
New!
Written by Terri DeGezelle; illustrated by Utomo Gabhor The folk tale associated with the tradition of coloring Easter eggs possibly originated in Germany, and is retold here for children ages 4–7 by Terri DeGezelle. Legend tells us that Simon of Cyrene, the man who helped Jesus carry his cross up to Calvary, was an egg merchant. In this story we see him coming into the city to sell eggs when he encounters Jesus, stumbling and falling under the weight of the cross. Roman soldiers seize Simon and force him to help Jesus, making him leave his eggs behind—eggs that are later returned with a startling surprise from Jesus. In this tale, Simon remains with the disciples after Jesus’ death and is a witness to their joy after the resurrection, returning to his home to spread this good news to his family, who become some of the first Christians.

Teens Anointed Gifts of the Holy Spirit
New!
Pope Francis; compiled and edited by Jaymie Stuart Wolfe and the Daughters of St. Paul Confirmation is an important milestone in the life of every believer. If baptism is the sacrament of rebirth into a new and supernatural life, confirmation is the sacrament of maturity and coming of age.

Pope Francis has spoken frequently about Confirmation and the gifts of the Holy Spirit. This volume, developed with young people in mind, is a collection of the pope’s encouraging words to us on the gifts of the Holy Spirit: wisdom, understanding, counsel, fortitude, knowledge, piety, and fear of the Lord. Includes a section of prayers that include the Holy Spirit in Scripture, praying with the Catechism of the Catholic Church, and the Veni Sancte Spiritus.

Paperback, 208 pages. 0-8198-9054-5 9780819890542 $18.25 CAD
I think that young teens, who struggle with believing in prayer and maybe even believing in God’s ability to work in their lives, will enjoy this book.

Stephanie does a nice job of balancing out faith-filled characters with those who struggle with their faith. —A.J. Cattapan, author and speaker
