Cele-Linky with the Saints

Arma Dei is having an All Saints' Day linkup on its blog. The ideas there are just brilliant, fun, colorful, easy peasy, charming, etc. I want to do them all, bu there's just not enough time (or glitter or glue).

Check out the lovely site and share your ideas with other Catholic peeps. And, yep, Paper Dali is there, too. (I shared my Ultimate All Saints Day party post.)

Special thanks to Familia Catolica for sharing the news!

Prayer of St. Teresa of Avila

In celebration of the feast day in honor of Saint Teresa of Avila, I drew a bookmark with St. Teresa's prayer and a drawing on it.

“Let nothing disturb thee,

Nothing

affright thee.

All things

are passing.

God never changes.

Patient endurance

attains

 to all things.

Who God possesses

in nothing is wanting.

 God alone suffices."

(St. Teresa of Avila, 1515-1582)

And in Spanish:

"Nada te turbe;

nada te espante.

Todo se pasa;

Dios no se muda.

La paciencia

todo lo alcanza.

Quien a Dios tiene,

nada le falta.

Solo Dios basta."

(Santa Teresa de Jesús, 1515-1582)

The praying gal and the prayer, however, can be downloaded as a bookmark in English or, if you prefer St. Teresa's language, in Spanish. It's my little gift to you.

En español:
Puse el dibujo y oración en un marcador. Es un regalito para ustedes.

A Catholic homeschooling mom, writing professor, rockin' good editor, friend of Saint Therese, and lover of purple, Angela has a blog, One Tiny Violet, dedicated to finding beauty in the everyday life.

Swing on by and show her some bloggy love when you get the chance.
