July 3 - St. Thomas the Apostle

  Tomorrow, July 3, is the memorial of St. Thomas the Apostle. Here are a couple of Thomas-related passages from books by Amy Welborn: the Loyola Kids Book of Bible Stories and 2020: Grace-Filled Days. 



Written by popular Catholic children's author Amy Welborn, this beautifully illustrated collection of warm and engaging Bible stories for children and their families is arranged in a uniquely Catholic way—based on the liturgical year and the order in which they are proclaimed during Mass. Divided into five sections—Advent, Christmas, Ordinary Time, Lent, and Easter—each section is subdivided into Old and New Testament stories.

From the Creation to St. Paul, the charming illustrations in Loyola Kids Book of Bible Stories and Welborn's friendly writing style turn reading the Bible into an experience that draws families closer together and deeper into the heart of the Church.
