A Faith Folder is our version of a Lapbook^TM. Our Faith Folders are Catholic based and are used to teach and spread the Catholic Faith. They are sold as a digital product to be downloaded as a pdf file by the customer.

What is a Lapbook?^TM

A lapbook^TM is a tool used to showcase and consolidate material studied and learned on a given topic. A lapbook^TM is created from a file folder, refolded to create a book which can be held in the lap. Many different mini-books and other special projects are then stored and displayed in the lapbook^TM. Lapbooks^TM can be used for science, social studies, phonics, religion and so much more. The possibilities are endless!

New Look, Same Great Products & More!

After a year of being online, I'm changing the look of the website a bit to make the home page a little less busy. I'm also taking this opportunity to add some new products and features to the website. Please take the time to look at the new Faith Rings available and coming soon an Adoration Journal. I have several new Faith Folders in the works and plan to complete them over the summer, ready for a new school year. Please be patient with me though, as I'm working it in between baseball games and trips to the pool with my 6 kids! Be sure to look over the shopping cart options and the upcoming FAQs page to answer any questions you may have. I've also added a special page to feature reviews and comments from you, my valued customers. This will be coming soon. I really enjoy hearing back from everyone on how they used the Faith Folders. So, if you have a moment, drop me an email and share your experience with the Faith Folders. I'd even love to feature photos of your completed projects and children if you'd like. As always, please feel free to contact me if you have any questions, suggestions or special requests.

I had a wonderful time at the Kansas City Conference for Catholic Homeschoolers. It was wonderful to meet some of you I have emailed Faith Folders to over the last year. And I loved meeting so many wonderful Catholics families. Much to my surprise, my workshop on Lapbooksing^tm with a Catholic Twist was recorded by JMJ Communications and cd's were sold at the conference. If you would like an audio copy of the workshop presentation, email me.

God Bless, Lindy Meyer

KARE Catechetical Conference

The Kansas Association of Religious Educators will be hosting their annual Catechetical Conference in Salina, KS on July 24-26, 2009. I will be attending as a vendor and catechist. If you are there, stop by and see me or look for my brochure in your registration packet.

Midwest Catholic Family Conference

I am considering attending the Midwest Catholic Family Conference in Wichita, KS August 7-9, 2009 as a vendor. This is a huge undertaking but many of my valued customers have suggested it. I will make my final decision in the next couple of weeks and will let you know if I'll be there.

Just for Fun!

I thought I'd share a couple of fun pictures of our 2 year-old, Clare, with you. One picture is what happens when I am distracted as I create a new Faith Folder and the other is of the wonderful help I sometimes get putting together the sample of a new Faith Folder. Can you guess which one is which?!
