The Feast of St. Francis

Good St. Francis


We continued to work our way through the first week of October, celebrating each day along the way!  Boy that first week is filled (and next week promises to have several wonderful days as well!)

Today was especially special!
St. Francis is the patron of our Kindergarten classroom. 
And what a beautiful example of how to grow in holiness and live close to Christ.  That is why we study the saints!

We created a fun little woodland scene for St. Francis and all the animals of God's creation that he loved so much. 


The munchkins did a wonderful job making the trees and the setting.









  
  
Then they added all sorts of critters...stickers are sooooo much fun!











When finished, there was a little time for a coloring page, too.











And to end our day, we read the story of the wolf at Gubbio.  What a terrific story.  The munchkins always love it!


We enjoyed wolf paw cookies as a special treat and them we watched
