How the Angels Got Their Wings
Who IS that angel that we see perched atop the Christmas tree? And how can angels fly so high, soaring through the snowy sky? And why do angels dress in white? And do the angels ever fight?Who made the angels? Any clue? He who made them made YOU too! With these charming rhyming verses, renowned Children's author Anthony DeStefano begins this enchanting children’s book on perhaps the most fascinating of all God’s creatures — the angels. How the Angels Got Their Wings is a winsome introduction to the story of the angels — pure spiritual beings of extraordinary power made by God to assist Him in carrying out His will. Beginning with the creation of the angels and the “war in Heaven” between the good angels and the bad, this book introduces children to the famous archangels Michael, Gabriel, and Raphael — as well as to Satan, the ringleader of the fallen angels, who chose to rebel against God. This book also acquaints children with those special angels who are here with us right now, helping to protect and guide us — our guardian angels. It shows children how angels can assist them with all the problems they encounter in life, from communicating with others to choosing between right and wrong, and can protect them from physical harm. How the Angels Got Their Wings is a beautifully illustrated, highly entertaining, biblically correct, and theologically orthodox introduction to angels. Once children read it, they will be forever comforted in knowing that God’s love for them is so strong that He gave them not only His Son, but the angels above so they will never, ever be alone in life. Dimensions: 23cm x 29cm.

Advent Wreath and Candles Set
The Advent Wreath and Candles are a traditional centerpiece of the Christmas season and provides a tangible and attractive opportunity to relay the beauty and sacredness of the Christian faith! During the Eucharistic celebration on each of the four Sundays preceding Christmas, a coloured candle nested within the Advent wreath is lit to highlight and encourage the community’s heightened expectancy of the coming of the Child Jesus. This same sense of expectancy can be brought into the family home, the school classroom, or the parish prayer space. By bringing this traditional practice in an explicit manner into the very centre of our everyday living areas, we highlight the living truth that Jesus Christ is the Light that guides our life! The Advent wreath is full of meaning and provides a wonderful opportunity for parents and educators to share its treasures with children and teens alike in order to arouse and cultivate their inherent curiosity. The wreath on offer is accentuated with purple ribbon which reminds us that Advent is a preparatory and even penitential season within the Church’s liturgical season. The circular form of the wreath reminds us of eternity, the immortality of our souls, and the everlasting life that is found in Jesus Christ. The evergreen foliage found around the wreath represent Christ’s Passion (holly), His victory over death (laurel), and His glorious resurrection (pinecone). The four candles, three purple and one rose, represent the period of time between Adam and the birth of the Saviour in the incarnated sphere of Salvation History. The purple candles remind us that this is a time for prayer, penance, and goods works. The rose candle, lit on Gaudete Sunday, speaks of the joy of having arrived at the midpoint of Advent when our preparation is half over and we draw ever closer to Christmas Day. The wreath and candle set includes: 1 x durable life-like wreath with natural pinecone inclusions. 1 x 4 Advent candles. Dimensions: Wreath 30cm dia. 8cm ht. Candles 2.2cm dia. 25.5cm ht.
