Welcome to our Free Catholic Printables

Celebrate Our Lady in May or anytime of the year you feel close to the Mother of God.

Traditionally, the Church dedicates the month of May to our Holy Mother. In that month, we are asked to meditate on Our Lady, her immaculate heart, and the love she has for God. However, there are many other times during the year that we may feel especially called to reflect on the Blessed Virgin Mary, including: Mary's birthday, Mother's Day, feast days, solemnities, in correlation with the liturgical readings, when teaching the Hail Mary prayer or the devotion of the Rosary, or to meet schedule of your religious education curriculum.

For the special month of May or at any time of the year, we invite you to use some of our favorite resources to bring a reminder of the Mother of God to the forefront of your learning time and family life.

We have selected some of our favorite resources that teach about or have been inspired by the Blessed Virgin Mary.
