We've been getting ready to celebrate St. Patrick's Day tomorrow! We have shamrocks up all over the downstairs and a nice banner for our wall. On the biggest shamrock we added cut-outs to symbolize the Holy Trinity.
I also made a paper bag puppet of St. Patrick using the tutorial over at Catholic Icing. Addie will put her puppet together tomorrow. She thinks he's so cute.
We've been singing this super cute song all day, the kids love it!
They will also help make some special green pudding (vanilla with food coloring... not a fan of pistachio), and we'll chow down on shamrock pretzels
while watching this short Veggie Tales video.
St. Patrick's Prayer
May the Strength of God pilot us.
May the Power of God preserve us.
May the Wisdom of God instruct us.
May the Hand of God protect us.
May the Way of God direct us.
May the Shield of God defend us.
May the Host of God guard us.
Against the snares of the evil ones.
Against temptations of the world
May Christ be with us!
May Christ be before us!
May Christ be before us!
May Christ be in us,
Christ be over all!
May Thy Salvation, Lord,
Always be ours,
This day, O Lord, and evermore. Amen.
