Why Is Jesus in the Microwave? Funny Stories from Catholic Classrooms

By: Mary Kathleen Glavich, SND

At a certain parish the tabernacle was a wide rectangle set into the wall. One day the primary children were learning about the Mass. At the end of the lesson, Sister asked, "Does anyone have any questions?" With furrowed brow, a child inquired, "Why does Father put Jesus into the microwave?" Kids. You never know what they're going to say next! As educators in America's Catholic classrooms, The Sisters of Notre Dame are no strangers to hilarious mix-ups, priceless mispronunciations, and innocent mistakes like this one. Now they're sharing their over 125-year treasury of funny stories and anecdotes in Why is Jesus in the Microwave? These real-life episodes cover everything from prayer -- "O my God, I am partly sorry." to morality - "Maybe I lie a little bit, but nobody's perfect." to schoolwork -- "Dear Joe, if you die, can I have your report card?" to holidays -- "And where was Baby Jesus born?" "In a haystack." And lots more! Priest or teacher, parent or grandparent, or anyone needing to lose themselves in funny and wholesome stories will enjoy Why is Jesus in the Microwave? It is a joyful reminder that laughter is a gift from God.

Prayer First!

A New Agenda for Catholic Schools

By: Mary Kathleen Glavich

Catholic school leaders and teachers will love this book! It has everything-absolutely everything-they want and need to know about prayer in school. Sr. Kathleen is a veteran teacher and it's clear that she has "been there and done that" with great joy and enthusiasm. But she knows that not every teacher feels secure about praying with a class, even though they know it's important and realize that parents entrust them with this responsibility. And she also realizes that certain Catholic prayer forms are a mystery to them. On the other hand, there are those who feel very comfortable teaching prayer but are looking for fresh ideas.

Like all good Jews, the apostles prayed the daily Jewish prayers in their synagogues and in the Temple in Jerusalem. But after meeting Jesus, they were drawn to deepen their prayer. Here was a holy man who enjoyed intimate union with God and who even spent whole nights in prayer. No wonder the apostles begged, Lord, teach us to pray. Now in your own journey you are trying

Cherished by Jesus

A Daily Devotional for Women

By: Mary Kathleen Glavich

A DAILY REMINDER OF JESUS'S LOVE AND RESPECT CHERISHED BY JESUS by Mary Kathleen Glavich, SND, is a daily devotional written for women who want something more—women who desire the empowerment that comes from being in relationship with God; women who seek the intimacy of a friendship with Jesus that resonates with their hopes, dreams, and daily lives; women who want to see themselves in the stories and teachings of Jesus. Each day begins on the firm footing of Scripture, followed by a reflection that highlights the reasons we know that we are cherished by Jesus. The daily devotion concludes with a tender prayer offered in conversation with our Savior. Ideal for personal reflection or as a thoughtful gift, this devotional is an invitation to embrace your identity as a cherished daughter of God.

Grieving with Mary

Finding Comfort and Healing in Devotion to the Mother of God

By: Mary K. Doyle

More art, music and literature have been devoted to Mary than to any other woman in history, and millions of believers make hard pilgrimages to visit her shrines every day. But why do Catholics pray to Mary in times of sorrow or need? And how does she help them develop a closer relationship to Christ? In Grieving with Mary, author Mary K. Doyle finds comfort and healing in devotion to the Blessed Virgin. Doyle walks readers through the illustrious history of the many ways Catholics have of approaching Mary, and encourages readers to use one or more of the following to nurture their own personal relationship with the Mother of God: [[Hymns and prayers [[Devotional art [[Shrines [[Rosary beads [[Labyrinths [[Feasts and processions When Catholics pray to Mary (or any other saint), they ask for her intercession. In prose that is clear and precise, Doyle makes clear that adoration of Mary does not replace worshipping God, but rather draws believers closer to God. Ultimately, devo
