GIVEAWAY: Catholic Sistas Celebrates FOUR Years!

Can you believe Catholic Sistas celebrates four years TODAY? It’s hard for me to recall a time when the blog didn’t exist! You may have come to know CS as a blog that truly enjoys putting new Catholic items into others’ hands. Part of the reason for the giveaways is to put some of these fabulous companies on YOUR radar! 

On a serious note, though, I would personally like to extend my gratitude to each of you who have found comfort, been challenged in the Faith, or been spiritually nourished by Catholic Sistas. It is always my hope that the different writing styles will appeal to a wide range of readers, bringing each of you to a level of commitment and recommitment to the beauty of our Catholic faith. Please do continue to keep us in prayer as we move into our fifth year of bringing you our witness. One thing I’d love to share with you is a bit of an inside view – each year, I – along with my executive board – encourage each of our writers to prayerfully reconsider their commitments annually, always putting their primary vocation first and trusting that God will bless whatever time they can give to writing. We aren’t professional writers by design. We are women – wives, and mothers who just happen to have stories to tell and want to share our time and talent to bring you a glimpse into our personal lives. As readers, we invite you to share your experience with us in the comboxes. 🙂 

I’ll stop now so we can get to the heart of this post – the giveaway! Grab a cup of coffee, find a comfy chair, and get ready to browse for a while. Ready? Let’s roll!

Vintage Style Amethyst Gemstone One Decade Chaplet
by BC Inspirations

VALUE of $20 

Vintage Style Amethyst chaplet (1)

This handmade one-decade rosary is made from 6 mm round natural amethyst stone beads, a 1 3/4″ bronze finished crucifix and centerpiece.  Each bead is unique, and the beads have a very smooth feel.  The crucifix and centerpiece are attached using split ring, which are far more durable than jump rings.  Using split rings prevents the rosary from breaking should it experience an accidental tug.

Both the center and the crucifix are Italian-made.  The center piece features a two-sided Miraculous Medal. The Miraculous Medal is also know as the Medal of the Immaculate Conception, created by St. Catherine Laboure following a vision of the Blessed Virgin Mary. It is believed to bring special intercessions on behalf of the Blessed Virgin Mary if worn with faith and devotion at the hour of death.

The bronze finished rosary parts give this rosary a vintage look. Amethyst is the February birth stone.

will win a signed copy of unPLANNED

by Abby Johnson

VALUE of $22.99 cover_book

Retailers Choice Award winner, 2012
Abby Johnson quit her job in October 2009. That simple act became a national news story because Abby was the director of a Planned Parenthood clinic in Texas who, after participating in an actual abortion procedure for the first time, walked down the street to join the Coalition for Life. Unplanned is a heart-stopping personal drama of life-and-death encounters, a courtroom battle, and spiritual transformation that speaks hope and compassion into the political controversy that surrounds this issue. Telling Abby’s story from both sides of the abortion clinic property line, this book is a must-read for anyone who cares about the life versus rights debate and helping women who face crisis pregnancies.

will each win a signed copy of Breaking Through: Catholic Women Speak for Themselves

by Helen Alvare

VALUE of $16.95 BreakingThrough

Catholic women are some of the most maligned, most caricatured, and most intriguing people in American society. 

America is flirting with the idea that being a Catholic female means saying “yes” to the faith as a private source of comfort, but “no” to living out its more countercultural moral and social teachings. 
Catholic women are facing unprecedented questions about sex, money, marriage, work, children and the church itself — questions with innumerable personal and societal repercussions. Is it even possible that the teachings of a 2,000 year old religion are still relevant for today’s toughest issues?

A quick tour of leading cultural indicators seems to say “no.” But this is far from the whole story. Many women, courageously facing questions their mothers and grandmothers would never have encountered, are finding intellectually and spiritually satisfying answers within the framework of their Catholic faith.

Nine such Catholic women — varying widely in age, occupation and experience — share personal stories of how they struggled toward the realization that the demands of their faith actually set them free. Their stories — full of honesty, but ultimately hope — shed new light and new clarity on women’s continued attraction to the Catholic faith.

Topics include:

Navigating dating and sexpectations

Feminism, freedom and contraception

Children versus a “better me”

Being Catholic in light of the sexual abuse scandal

Faith, psychology and same-sex attraction

  20. All the pirizes look wonderful! If I won, depending on which one, I may keep it for myself, but if it’s something I don’t have a need for or if it’s a book, after reading it myself, I’m sure I would pass it on to someone else. The blog is definitely helping me to become a better Catholic, as a convert that has lapsed over the years.

  21. There are so many wonderful things in this giveaway that are already on my wishlist but the 33 Day Family Consecration is something I have never heard of. It has caught my eye and I will be going to find out more about it as soon as I complete all the remaining entries!

  22. I will leave it in God’s hands, but there are definitely a few things in this giveaway I could use! Thank you for doing it!

    1. And to comply with the conditions for another entry;), one item I have my eye on is the veils. Winning them might be a sign I should wear one, and share with my daughters ;). Haven’t plucked up the courage yet! Also like the printabls, and, and and…so many good items here!

  23. Excellent array of products and now ‘ve been introduced to some new ones! Thanks.

  24. I really enjoy reading the posts on here! They usually make me reflect on my own family and life. 🙂

  25. Such wonderful goodies! I would LOVE the Infinity Scarf Mantilla, I have lately been researching the veiling devotion, it has been on my mind a lot!

  26. Any of the catechizing resources would be such a blessing! I would especially love to add to the Treasure Box Series. I grew up with the first 10 and would love to add to the collection for my children to use.

  27. There are several items I’d love to win for myself, but there are others that aren’t suited to my needs or I have multiples of that item. I’d be excited to pass on your generosity!

  28. So many amazing prizes! Thank you! I can’t say I have my eye on one because so many are so great. If I keep it or give it away depends on what it is. Some of them I have and would love to pass on the greatness to a friend. Others are ones I’ve been wanting to read/try. Thank you!

  29. I would love most of the prizes! What an awesome selection. I’ve had my eye on the infinity veils at Veils by Lilly for quite a while, but haven’t been able to decide on just one. My kids would love the Chime Traveller books.

  30. I want everything! But if I had to pick one I would love to have the Latin version of the Wimpy Kid book for my son. He loves the wimpy kid and attends a classical Catholic school…would really help him out with his Latin studies!

  31. Okay, I am new to Catholic Sista. I would love any of the following from this giveaway.

    Catholic Through the Year; Feast; More Feasts; Acts of Hope, Love, Charity, Contrition, and 10 Commandments; Catholic Treasure Box Series; Saints for Boys/Girls; Windeatt Series; The Story of the Bible; The Princess and the Kiss; any of the veils by Lily; Saints and Heros Collection; Holy Heros Bundle; The Illuminated Rosary.

    As a home schooling mother most of these would be a wonderful addition to our studies. I have wanted a veil for years.

  32. I would love any of the kids’ books (especially The Princess and the Kiss or the the Illuminated Rosary books) – they would be terrific gifts for my children or godchildren!

  33. So many prizes- so hard to pick one! maybe one of the packages so I can share some goodies!

  34. While all of the prizes look great, I am especially interested in the young children’s books. I am a new mother and I would love to have some resources for my son when he gets a little older.

  35. I honestly couldn’t just pick one item to win. Each and every one would help me and my family grow in the faith. Thank you for such a wonderful site.

  36. I love that Catholic Sistas has inspiring posts and helps build Catholic community. I would love to win the Illuminated Rosary books! If I win I would give some of the books as a gift 🙂

  37. SO many things I would like to win but I would really like the planner to help me kick off the new school year 😉

  38. LOTS of awesome prizes, but I’d have to say Lisa Hendey’s books, my 8YO would LOVE them. Thanks for such a great giveaway!

  39. I have one of Monica Welch’s prints I received as a gift. It’s in my office at the Austin Diocese.Would love to have more to display. Just heard of your blog today on Catholic Radio. It’s awesome. thank you!

  40. I actually have my eyes on the infinity veil AND the Latin Diary of a Wimpy Kid book (as one of my sons is just beginning his Latin study this year!). But honestly there are so MANY amazing prizes!!!!

  42. If you are a Catholic who takes his faith seriously, take a look at this dating site that allows you to join free for two months (so that you can have a good look around before committing yourself). It also allows you to down load a free eBook on love and marriage written by Dietrich von Hildebrand, a man described by Pope Pius XII as by one of the greatest Catholic philosophers of the twentieth century.
