Catholic devotional books for advent recommendations prepare for Christmas

As Christmas draws nearer, you realize that you haven’t properly prepared for the coming of Christ. Maybe you’re been busy with hosting guests or you only focused on the family and your kids’ Jesse Tree… but you don’t feel prepared.

Avoid those feelings by steeping yourself in prayer and reading a Catholic meditative book to prepare yourself throughout Advent for the great Christmas season!

Here are some recommended books to read this Advent:

Celebrating a Merry Catholic Christmas

7 Ways to Buy Catholic Christmas Gifts Cheap

I love giving faithful Christmas gifts to my friends and family. I feel like anything that nourishes the soul and points back to Christ is a great gift for me to give. But, sometimes, it seems so difficult to find Catholic Christmas gifts that fit the budget! Here I’ve detailed 5 ways you can stretch your wallet and provide faithful Christmas gifts to your friends and family!

This post may contain affiliate links on stuff I support and love!

Let’s do this! Here are:

7 Ways to Buy Catholic Christmas Gifts Cheap

1. Check out thrift shops and bookstores

I recently walked out of a thrift shop with five Catholic books, including Theotokos, a Theological Encyclopedia of the Blessed Virgin Mary. I bought it for a mere 50 cents and it’s worth $40 on Amazon!

You can find C.S. Lewis books at almost any used bookstore, Christian ornaments, decorations, and crosses at thrift stores and in the clearance section of Catholic bookstores. Psst! Don’t forget yard sales too! Shop like this throughout the year and you’ll have great Catholic gifts for everyone on your list!

2. Buy it in online

When you try to buy something through Amazon, take a few extra clicks and go back to the seller’s personal website. Several authors sell their own books at a cheaper rate on their websites than on Amazon or offer them for a cheaper rate as an ebook version than can be found in other stores.

For example, Catholic Mommy Blogs sells the ebook version of Our Lady of Sorrows: A Catholic Meditation & Prayer Journal on their website for only $3.99. On Amazon, this same book as a hard copy costs $13.89. You could print and bind this book as a gift or send it directly to that person as an ebook gift.

(PRO TIP: Do you love books as much as I do? Check out iBooks (through Apple) and Hoopla (through many local libraries), where you can find many spiritual Catholic classics for free.)

3. Get Creative

This gift idea is great for kids! Run to your nearest craft store and grab your supplies, print off the materials, and create your own peg doll nativity set. This is kinda DIY, isn’t it? But Lacy at Catholic Icing makes it so easy that your ten-year-old could do it and gift it to her cousins. So then you’re not really doing it… are you? Plus, no glitter or children’s painted handprints required!!

4. Use Your Skills

If you know how to sew, crochet or embroider, your craftiness can make some seriously cool Catholic gifts for friends and family! Check out Jen’s blog Faith & Fabric for Catholic sewing and quilting designs and grab your faithful embroidery patterns from Happy Nest Home Goods.

5. Put it together for them

My kids have a cute little prayer table in their room. It has prayer cards on it, saint medals, and small saint statues. I would love to add to this table, and I’m sure you probably know someone who would love to have a prayer table… maybe even your own family! Why not make one for them? You could use:

  • a simple table runner (or place mats!) in different liturgical colors (green, white, purple),
  • some prayer cards,
  • a small statue of the child or family’s patron saint
  • a battery-operated candle
  • a crucifix
  • and a book on the saints or liturgical living

Put these in a pretty box and it will be such a delightful gift! Read more about family prayer tables.

6. Cook up something perfect

Do you prefer to make gifts in the kitchen? Check out these great ideas for Christmas gifts you can make in the kitchen at Catholic Cuisine like Cathedral Window Cookies and St. Nicholas Cheese. You could also make gingerbread nativity cookies!

7. Know how to save money online

Lastly, Make Ebates.com your friend whenever you shop online. This website rebates you money as you purchase from your favorite online retailers like Amazon, Etsy, Ebay, etc, for serious cash back on selected items! I don’t shop online without them.

I hope these tips and tricks will help you find affordable Catholic gift ideas! God bless you and your family this season!
