Hopping off the shelves!

Hi all,

This is the time of year that the approximately 500 clubs start their meetings. As a result, our home business/apostolate is run ragged trying to keep up with filling orders, answering the phone and email. This on top of a new (colicky) baby in the house makes life very interesting indeed!!

Although our family loves serving you and your Little Flowers needs, if you could please respect our business hours when calling by phone (9-5 EST; M-F) it would greatly be appreciated. Better yet, contact us online at: EcceHomoPr@aol.com. Online ordering is available 24 hours a day at the website: www.eccehomopress.com.

The Stromberg family thanks you!

There is no national registration or database of groups. Have you tried the leader's yahoogroup that you can sign on from the website? Other than that, contact your local parish or Catholic homeschool support group.; September 4, 2008 at 9:28 AM

What is Little Flowers Girls' Club?

Little Flowers Girls' Club® is a Catholic program for girls ages 5 and up based on learning Catholic virtues through the lives of Catholic saints, Scripture and the Catechism of the Catholic Church. Developed by a Catholic mom of eleven, Rachel Watkins, and based on Fr. Lasance's Catholic Girls' Guide, the Club strives to bring the Catholic faith alive and inspire the girls to become authentic Catholic women.
Nine virtues are included in each of three different Wreaths or years of study. A fourth year, studying the fruits of the Spirit is also available. The format of the Clubs is flexible, with groups meeting monthly, bi-monthly or weekly. Badges for the virtues are earned by studying the saint associated with the virtue, memorizing relevant scripture verses and studying the Catechism. The program is flexible enough to use with a variety of age groups. Little Flowers Girls' Club® has also been successfully implemented in the family. Sashes, vests, skirts, bandanas, t-shirts and other items are extras that add to the experience, but are not necessary to running a successful Club.
The Leader's Guide for each Wreath offers suggestions for running meetings, planning crafts and activities, talks on virtues and other relevant information.
The Member's Guide includes the activities, saints' biographies, pictures of the saints, and prayers for each girl. Each of the girls in the Club should purchase their own Member's Guide.
Other items that leader's find useful are the Memory Verse CD, the Tea and Luncheon Manual and the Craft Companion and Merit Certificates.
Leader's should have fun with the program and use the flexibility to choose the items that are right for your group's needs. God bless you in your work for His work!
