Reviews:
These soaps are beautiful!! I purchased the six pack recently. Very gentle, creamy and they smell lovely. My husband even commented on how soft my skin was and how wonderful I smelled after I used them! I even have one on my dresser and our bedroom smells lovely! Itβs a gentle scent but it lingers the way youβd like it to. They all smell wonderful β citrus, lemongrass and lavender are my favorites but peppermint and orange patchouli will be wonderful to have for the fall and Christmas seasons!
These soaps are amazing! My family and I have extremely sensitive skin and even struggle with eczema and allergic rashes from many products. These beautiful and gentle soaps actually calm our skin and the eczema on my hands started improving right away! The scents are beautiful as well; the extra soaps we have on display and every time we walk in our bathroom, there is a gentle yet not overpowering beautiful scent. Very feminine and lovely! Thank you for making these!
Theresaβs soaps are available here.


βThe love of parents is made manifest only through sacrifice, respect for the human nature of their children, companionship and a deep interest in the studies, the work, the play and the progress of their children. It does not injure the children by coddling them; it does not stunt them by unreasonable severity in its demands and punishments.β -Fr. Donald Miller, C.SS.R., 1950βs

ON SALE! Love these books! What a great gift for someone!
For more than 50 years, the titles from the Confraternity of the Precious Blood have nourished the soul. Millions of readers have found in these treasured books a source of inspiration and grace.
Conveniently sized for pocket, palm, or purse, these little devotionals are treasures of wisdom and consolation. Available for the first time in a beautifully box packaged set, these are to be kept close at hand, to provide spiritual refreshment throughout the day and a gentle call to grow closer to God.
Available here.
My Confraternity Library includes:
- My Daily Bread β This is a series of short, daily reflections on the spiritual life. Written with loving care by Father Anthony Paone, this devotional will strengthen your love for Christ and his teachings. Written as a dialogue with Christ himself, it leads the reader through the three ways of the spiritual life: Purification, Imitation, and Union.
- My Daily Life β This is the follow-up title, and natural complement to My Daily Bread. While the latter focused on the interior life, My Daily Life focuses on the exterior life, offering practical advice to persevere in the holy resolutions which you make at the time of confession, Holy Communion, missions, retreats, or any moment of grace.
- My Meditation on the Gospel β This little book traces the events of Our Lordβs life through all four Gospels. This pocket daily devotional puts the reader in the footsteps of an early follower of Christ watching the events of the Gospel unfold.
- My Meditations on Saint Paul β Father James Sullivan begins each daily devotional with a scene from Acts of the Apostles or the Epistles of Saint Paul following in his missionary footsteps from Damascus to Rome.
- My Imitation of Christ Β- classic and treasured edition, aptly entitled My Imitation of Christ, is crafted specifically for the busy person in the modern world. It is an adapted illustrated work of The Imitation of Christ.
- My Way of Life β presents small, concise portions of the Aquinasβ Summa Theologica in a manageable format. This work will allow the reader to consider some of the highest thoughts of one of historyβs greatest minds and apply them to the modern world.
- BONUS β My Daily Psalm Book β features a beautiful, solemn, but readable text, adorned with nearly 200 stirring illustrations by artist Ariel Agemian. It is a simple Divine Office for lay people to pray the Psalms assigned to each day of the week.
Available here.

The soaps I bought for my daughter-in-law for her birthday at the Shakespeare Festival 2 wks ago smelled so wonderful, that when my daughter-in-law opened her gifts her little ones smelled them and one of them said: “mommy, can I take a bath now and try out the pumpkin one?!” She was so surprised that he actually WANTED to take a bathπ! Whatever works!!
Whenever I get a chance to sit and read your web page is a treat! It brings life into perspective, gives pertinent information, family and marital guides and spiritual help, and I just love all the beautiful and edifying pictures you share here. I have saved all of your posts, and added many of the pictures to my files to add to my emails to family and friends.
