This month for the Heart of the Revival Newsletter, my article is on May Crownings, Mary Gardens, and Eucharistic Flowers. Using the beauty of nature around us to honor Our Lady, and allowing that beauty to lead us closer to her Son, Jesus, is a perfect activity for springtime. Included in the article is more info on the historical background on Mary Gardens as well as some flowers with Eucharistic names too.
I redesigned an old printable Marian shrine with an image based on Jean Auguste Dominique Ingres' The Virgin Adoring the Host painting from 1852. The printable shrine includes a little info for families, a foldable triptych, Mary "statue," and Marian decorative elements. I also have a new coloring page for you, and both are available in Spanish as well!
