Lucy: A Light for Jesus

Lucy lived during a time when being a Christian was against the law. Even though it was difficult, she let her faith in Jesus shine bright. Lucy's name means "light." The Church honors her as a martyr, a hero of the faith. 

This book is part of the Saints of Christmas collection from the Saints and Me! series of children's books (for ages 4-9). 

• Mary and Joseph: Models of Faith and Love
• Saint Francis of Assisi: Keeper of Creation

Available separately, a companion Saints of Christmas Activity Book provides coloring pages and activities related to the saints. With 96 reproducible pages, the book makes a great resource for teachers, catechists, and parents to use over and over again. Children can relive the stories and learn by participating in word searches that contain words from the stories, coloring pages that have pictures from the stories, and reflective material on the saints as role models. This is an excellent way to introduce the saints to children, helping them to understand virtue and the desire to live a holy life.
