Monstrance Craft Project

  We love celebrating major Feast Days with a craft project, or special recipe. It helps to reinforce the reason we are celebrating, and builds a love of our faith in the youngest of hearts.

For the Feast of Corpus Christi, we made a monstrance. We took paper doilies and painted them with gold paint pens. We cut the base of the monstrance out of gold paper. For the Blessed Sacrament, we took white craft foam and cut a circle, then used the gold paint pen to draw on a cross. We used rhinestone stickers to decorate the monstrance.

Joseph was very careful with his paint pen. He wanted his monstrance to be perfect!

The boys chose James' finished monstrance to be on display in the dining room for our Feast Day supper. He was so pleased!

We also made a "Happy Feast Day!" banner to hang in the dining room. I look forward to using it for many Feast Days to come!

Love in Christ,
