My Favorite Catholic Things! Oprah Winfrey Style
The Catholic Woman Podcast
Oprah gave away cars. I'm giving you my honest list of the Catholic small businesses, books, podcasts, and services I actually use and love, just in time for Black Friday and Christmas gifting! Nothing in this episode is sponsored, so every recommendation here is simply something I believe in. Before we get to the fun stuff, though, we start with giving, because this season should begin with generosity. In this episode: - How Catholics are called to give of their time, talent, and treasure, even when money is tight - How Mission Way Moving provides free emergency moves for domestic violence survivors and how you can sponsor a move this Giving Tuesday - Catholic Christmas gift ideas for women, moms, and godchildren from small, ethical Catholic businesses - Rosary bracelets for busy moms who struggle to pray a full rosary in one sitting - Non-toxic perfume, cologne, and candles for women who get headaches from fragrance - Clean Catholic fiction and memoirs that are fully in line with Church teaching - Catholic personal finance advice that respects Church teaching on generous and responsible parenthood GIVE THIS SEASON Mission Way Moving: Free moves for people in crisis, including domestic violence survivors. The average move costs $2,000.
