St. Francis of Assisi Printables and Worksheet Packet

I can’t believe that Eric and I have been making Catholic Printables Packets for two years now! This St. Francis of Assisi Packet was the first one we created. A lot has changed about the way Eric draws the saints, how I color them (back then, he did that), and the kinds of things that I put in the packets. It seemed like the perfect time to update this packet, which has now gone from a 14 page packet to a 43 page packet!

Even before we were Catholic, St. Francis’ feast day was an important one to me.  It was on St. Francis’ feast day one year that I was in labor at a local hospital that is owned by Franciscan sisters.  At the height of the pain of my labor, one of the Sisters came over the PA system to pray and then shared about St. Francis and read the Prayer of St. Francis.  I remember being in tears, both from the pain and from an overwhelming sense of comfort in the words.

This is probably why our first packet back in 2014 was all about Saint Francis of Assisi, and we’re thrilled to have this be the first of the older packets that we’ve redesigned and added content to.

One change that I added was to offer many of the pages that were only in color before to now be available in black and white as well, in order to save money on printing and give kids extra coloring areas.

The appropriate ages for the packet varies a bit.  I always hate to assign an age group to these kinds of things because there is such a variation among children.  Some of the activities will be preschool appropriate, while others might go as high as mid-elementary school.

Before I tell you about the packet, I have to send a huge shout out to my awesome husband, Eric.  He hand drew the Saint Francis clip art that I used in the packet.  (As such, this is not clip art for public use, of course.  That would be against copyright law, and would just not be nice.)
