Faith Folder Overview

Faith Folder is our term for our Catholic Faith based lapbookTM. This Faith Folder is meant to be used to assist you in teaching the Gifts of the Holy Spirit and the Fruits of the Holy Spirit. Through discussion and the creation of this Faith Folder the child(ren) will discover how the Holy Spirit guides and assists us each day. By growing and developing in these virtues, we grow closer to God. We have included a mixture of material and a variety of options. Some of the material is already complete, while some is more of a template for you and the child(ren) to input what they have learned from your teaching. This allows for the information to be targeted to the individual child or specific group of children and their levels of understanding. Many of the Faith Folder components can be completed using the pre-printed pages. Another option would be to print the blank pages and write in the information chosen. We have also included the option of pre-colored pages to be printed or blank pages to be printed on colored paper. The possibilities and creative freedom in creating a Faith Folder are endless. Please feel free to adapt and/or embellish this Faith Folder template as you see fit. We would suggest looking through the document material before printing. Many special touches can be made by simply printing the various components on different colors and weights of paper. When compiling the information for this Faith Folder we referred to the New St. Joseph Baltimore Catechism and The Catechism of the Catholic Church. Scripture references are made using the St. Joseph Edition of the New American Bible, unless indicated otherwise.

Two people went up to the temple area to pray; one was a Pharisee and the other was a tax collector. The Pharisee took up his position and spoke this prayer to himself, O God, I thank you that I am not like the rest of humanity But the tax collector stood off at a distance and would not even raise his eyes to Heaven but beat his breast and prayed, O God, be merciful to me a sinner. I tell you, the latter went home justified, not the former; for everyone who exalts himself will be humbled, and the one who humbles himself will be exalted. Luke 18:10-14

In his letter to the Corinthians, Paul speaks to the people about our bodies being temples, guiding how we should treat ourselves and others.

Jesus lesson on prayer speaks about modesty and how we present ourselves to others.
When you pray, do not be like the hypocrites, who love to stand and pray in the synagogues and on street corners so that others may see them. Amen I say to you, they have received their reward. But when you pray, go to your inner room, close the door, and pray to your Father in secret. And your Father who sees in secret will repay you. Matthew 6:5-6
Corinthians show us how to love, to be charitable.

Love is patient, love is kind. It is not jealous, [love] is not pompous, it is not inflated, it is not rude, it does not seek its own interests, it is not quicktempered, it does not brood over injury, it does not rejoice over wrongdoing but rejoices with the truth. It bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things. Love never fails.So faith, hope, love remain, these three; but the greatest of these is love. 1 Corinthians 13:4-13
Hannah longed to have a child and prayed for many years. She showed long-suffering as she waited for God to answer her prayers.
O Lord of hosts, if you look with pity on the misery of your handmaid, if you remember me and do not forget me, if you give your handmaid a male child, I will give him to the Lord for as long as he lives;Eli said, Go in peace, and may the God of Israel grant you what you have asked of Him. She replied, Think kindly of your maidservant, and left. She went to her quarters, ate and drank with her husband, and no longer appeared downcast. 1 Samuel 1:11-18

Matthews gospel shows us Gods great care over us so we may have peace.
Therefore I tell you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat [or drink], or about your body, what you will wear. Is not life more than food and the body more than clothing? Look at the birds in the sky; they do not sow or reap, they gather nothing into barns, yet your Heavenly Father feeds them. Are not you more important than they? Can any of you by worrying add a single moment to your life-span? Matthew 6:25-27
Jesus gave his disciples a new commandment about how He wanted us to treat others, with goodness and love.
My children, I will be with you only a little while longer. You will look for me, and as I told the Jews, Where I go you cannot come, so now I say it to you. I give you a new commandment: love one another. As I have loved you, so you also should love one another. This is how all will know that you are My disciples, if you have love for one another. John 13:33-35
Jesus words about watchfulness reminds us the importance of continence and control of our actions.
But of that day or hour, no one knows, neither the angels in Heaven, nor the Son, but only the Father. Be watchful! Be alert! You do not know when the time will come. It is like a man traveling abroad. He leaves home and places his servants in charge, each with his work, and orders the gatekeeper to be on the watch. Watch, therefore; you do not know when the lord of the house is coming, whether in the evening, or at midnight, or at cockcrow, or in the morning. May he not come suddenly and find you sleeping. What I say to you, I say to all: Watch! Mark 13:32-37

But Abram said, O Lord God, what good will Your gifts be, if I keep on being childless and have as my heir the steward of my house, Eliezer?He took him outside and said, Look up at the sky and count the stars, if you can. Just so, he added, shall your descendants be, Abram put his faith in the Lord Genesis 15:2-6

The story of the Good Samaritan is an example of benignity, showing kindness to others.
But a Samaritan traveler who came upon him was moved with compassion at the sightThe next day he took out two silver coins and gave them to the innkeeper with the instruction, Take care of him.Which of these three, in your opinion, was neighbor to the robbers victim? He answered, The one who treated him with mercy. Jesus said to him, Go and do likewise. Luke 10:33-37
In his letter to the Corinthians, Paul speaks to the people about our bodies being temples, guiding how we should treat ourselves and others.
Do you not know that you are the temple of God, and that the Spirit of God dwells in you? If anyone destroys Gods temple, Got will destroy that person; for the temple of God, which you are, is holy. 1 Corinthians 3:16-17
St. Pauls letter to the Romans speaks of a joy from God. It is this joy that fills and sustains us.
May the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace in believing, so that you may abound in hope by the power of the Holy Spirit. Romans 15:13

Jesus lesson on prayer speaks about modesty and how we present ourselves to others.
When you pray, do not be like the hypocrites, who love to stand and pray in the synagogues and on street corners so that others may see them. Amen I say to you, they have received their reward. But when you pray, go to your inner room, close the door, and pray to your Father in secret. And your Father who sees in secret will repay you. Matthew 6:5-6
Corinthians show us how to love, to be charitable.

Love is patient, love is kind. It is not jealous, [love] is not pompous, it is not inflated, it is not rude, it does not seek its own interests, it is not quick-tempered, it does not brood over injury, it does not rejoice over wrongdoing but rejoices with the truth. It bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things. Love never fails.So faith, hope, love remain, these three; but the greatest of these is love. 1 Corinthians 13:4-13
Hannah longed to have a child and prayed for many years. She showed long-suffering as she waited for God to answer her prayers.
O Lord of hosts, if you look with pity on the misery of your handmaid, if you remember me and do not forget me, if you give your handmaid a male child, I will give him to the Lord for as long as he lives;Eli said, Go in peace, and may the God of Israel grant you what you have asked of Him. She replied, Think kindly of your maidservant, and left. She went to her quarters, ate and drank with her husband, and no longer appeared downcast. 1 Samuel 1:11-18

Matthews gospel shows us Gods great care over us so we may have peace.
Therefore I tell you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat [or drink], or about your body, what you will wear. Is not life more than food and the body more than clothing? Look at the birds in the sky; they do not sow or reap, they gather nothing into barns, yet your Heavenly Father feeds them. Are not you more important than they? Can any of you by worrying add a single moment to your life-span? Matthew 6:25-27
Jesus gave his disciples a new commandment about how He wanted us to treat others, with goodness and love.
My children, I will be with you only a little while longer. You will look for me, and as I told the Jews, Where I go you cannot come, so now I say it to you. I give you a new commandment: love one another. As I have loved you, so you also should love one another. This is how all will know that you are My disciples, if you have love for one another. John 13:33-35
Jesus words about watchfulness reminds us the importance of continence and control of our actions.
But of that day or hour, no one knows, neither the angels in Heaven, nor the Son, but only the Father. Be watchful! Be alert! You do not know when the time will come. It is like a man traveling abroad. He leaves home and places his servants in charge, each with his work, and orders the gatekeeper to be on the watch. Watch, therefore; you do not know when the lord of the house is coming, whether in the evening, or at midnight, or at cockcrow, or in the morning. May he not come suddenly and find you sleeping. What I say to you, I say to all: Watch! Mark 13:32-37

Pockets Full of Gifts and Fruits

On pages 123-124 you will find pieces to create two pockets to be glued into the Faith Folder. There is one for the Gifts of the Holy Spirit and one for the Fruits of the Holy Spirit. Each pocket will hold a set of hearts with the names of the gifts and fruits on them. To practice and encourage growth in the virtues, the child can draw out a heart and work to practice the drawn virtue for that day, week, or designated period of time. The hearts can be covered with clear contact paper or self-laminating sheets for extra durability. Another option would be to print two copies of each set and play a matching game with the hearts. Cut out the each pocket around the outer edge. The pockets are glued into the Faith Folder on the outer edges of the sides and bottom only. This allows for the hearts to be inserted and removed easily. Cut out each heart and store in the corresponding pocket.

Novena to the Holy Spirit
Help Me Get to Know You

154
DAY 1: HELLO
Novena to the Holy Spirit
O Holy Spirit, I begin this Novena by admitting that I do not KNOW you. I know about You, from what I have been told. I have been told how God the Father, my Creator, and God the Son, my Savior, sent You God the Holy Spirit, to be with me. To comfort me, be my advocate, sanctify me. MUSCLE BUILDER I am ashamed, after all You have done for me, that I have never taken the time to learn how to open my heart and let You in. It is my hope, at this moment, that You will give me the STRENGTH to be DETERMINED and PERSEVERE, and to constantly have You as my companion. I KNOW how weak I am since I have had other good intentions and failed. I failed in the past because I did not realize it is You who must provide me with Your seven spiritual gifts. Your gift of FORTITUDE will give me the STRENGTH I need to complete this Novena. Instill in me, O Holy Spirit, Your gift of FORTITUDE so I can carry on, to do what I must to, to complete this Novena. Amen.
Help Me Get to Know You
155
DAY 2: I'M SORRY O Holy Spirit, my curiosity has tempted me to begin reading this second day of my Novena instead of spending this time trying to learn to listen to Your promptings. I always know better than my teacher and did not think it would make any difference. I do not let You guide me because I do not KNOW how to listen to You. In fact, I do not even listen to those who have had the experience of learning how to listen. WAKE ME UP Give me Your gift of COUNSEL by reminding me numerous times during this day to talk to You as I would talk to my very best human friend. COUNSEL me by reminding me to swell on these thoughts of my first and second day of this Novena. GIVE ME A SHOVE Remind me, O Holy Spirit, to express my gratitude to You who have given me so much. My faith, my hope and ability to love. My home, friends, relatives and the fact I have life. Do not let me be one of the nine lepers who did not return to show gratitude. Thank You, O Holy Spirit, thank You.
DAY 3: GET IT! Already You are giving me, O Holy Spirit, an UNDERSTANDING of how I must spend this moment thinking about You in my heart. You are beginning to let me UNDERSTAND that simply reading this information will not release Your grace. I am beginning to realize Your gift of UNDERSTANDING comes to me from You, when I take the time to accept Your COUNSEL. For this realization and the gifts You have given me, thank You, O Holy Spirit. AND LEAD US NOT INTO __________ Please do not lead me into temptation, O Holy Spirit! Do not put me to the test that I must prove to You my faith, by making me wait longer to experience Your presence, if for only one second. This single second of knowing that You are in my heart will increase my faith. O Holy Spirit, I do believe; help my unbelief. Make me UNDERSTAND the only reason I am starting this third day of getting to know You is through and with the FORTITUDE You have provided. If I listen to my pride, I would think I am doing it all by myself.
156
DAY 4: POSSESSED BY THE HOLY SPIRIT When I look back just these three days, I am beginning to be able to see how my life with You will be much richer as I willingly permit You to take possession of me. This ability to see as You see, to the extent You wish for me to see at this moment, is Your gift of KNOWLEDGE. Who, O Holy Spirit, in heaven or on earth, possesses the KNOWLEDGE that is Yours and Yours alone? Why do I spend so much time seeking mere information from others when You are so willing and anxious to give me this gift I need. If only I would take time to listen to You. Why do I put so much importance on worldly things - things that do not have a mere fraction of the power You have? Why do I spend so much time gathering things when Jesus promised me the Father would provide? What good would it do a man if he gained the whole world and suffered the loss of his soul? Why do I spend so little time listening to You? Is it my lack of faith? Help me to UNDERSTAND. Show me the way. Lead me, O Kindly Light.
Have you ever heard of anyone who created, or claimed to have created, a soul, as your Father in heaven has done for you and millions and millions of times over? Have you ever heard of any creature who has paid the price for a soul in sin, and won salvation for them, as Jesus did for you and millions of others? I am the Holy Spirit, the Third Person of the Trinity. Just as no one other than the Father has the power to create, from nothing, a soul, and just as no one other than the Son has the power to pay the great price for salvation, no one other than I, the Holy Spirit, has the power to sanctify you. My child, no one else can explain, teach or give to you My gifts of Knowledge, Understanding, Counsel, Wisdom, Fortitude, Piety and Fear of the Lord. I alone can sanctify you and make you worthy to enter Heaven. When you accept these gifts, I will reward you with peace, happiness and joy in this life as well as the next. Give Me a chance, have faith in Me, ask Me your questions. Many of these questions, I have put into your thoughts as a way of leading you. Keep pondering these questions until I give you the answer. Prove to Me your faith. Do not give up. Ask for My gift of FORTITUDE - but never give up. Your time has not come to know the answer to some of these questions. I want you to prove your faith to Me. You want to know how to recognize the Holy Spirit when I talk to you? I am the only one who can answer this question. Never stop listening for My answer.
DAY 5: THE CREATOR, THE REDEEMER, THE SANCTIFIER
157
DAY 6: COME If you take the time to learn to listen to Me, I will give you My gift of PIETY. This gift will make you want to be near and close to Me. This gift, if you use it, will bring you to ecstasy in My intimacy. This gift will make everything easy for you, but will not interfere with your free will. I will give you so much. Give Me your appreciation and gratitude. I AM PEACE When you learn how to dismiss all distractions and think only of Me in your heart, you will experience Peace. I, your God, My Holy Spirit, is in the midst of this peace you experience. The more undivided attention you focus on Me, the greater and deeper this peace will become. This peace surrounds Me. I am Peace. You will recognize My presence by this peace. Do not make the mistake so many others do. Relaxation of the body is not peace. Peace, My peace that only I can give, is of the soul. Your gratitude to Me will increase my gifts to you. Just as you give more to those who appreciate you.
DAY 7: OUT OF ORDER? Your soul was created to be attracted to Me like steel to a magnet. If you do not take time to learn to listen to Me, my child, you will become confused, as many others have. The confused try to satisfy their magnetic attraction to Me with worldly things. Some express their confusion by other delights, but this is not the peace I offer you. The confused not only destroy their bodies and minds, but also their souls. The confused cannot tell the difference between relaxation of the body and the reward of My peace to their souls. The confused have refused to listen to Me. All human creatures have been given this right, to refuse to listen. All were created with a will that is free. A free will to choose their Creator or reject Him. If you learn to listen to Me, I will relieve you of your many anxieties and fears. Your doubts and frustration will be resolved. You will have Peace. Your will is free. Choose to make it My will.
158
DAY 8: LOVE - FEAR No one, O Holy Spirit, not even You, can cite and occasion that could arise in my life here on earth that cannot be more than satisfied by Your seven gifts. My love for You, O Holy Spirit, increase as I learn to listen to You KNOWLEDGE, UNDERSTANDING and COUNSEL. My love grows as I experience the FORTITUDE and PIETY You give to me. Increase in me, O Holy Spirit, Your gift of FEAR OF THE LORD so that I will love You so much I cannot offend You out of FEAR of losing You. Thank You, O Holy Spirit, for Your infinite love. I know Your great love for me by the mere fact that You, the Father and Son, created me and gave me life. Just as I love what I have accomplished, You also love what You have accomplished. IT IS GOOD.
DAY 9: COMMON SENSE The only other spiritual gift You offer to us if we listen, O Holy Spirit, is the greatest of all Your gifts. Your gift of WISDOM. This gift of WISDOM is the highest compliment man can receive. Your gift of WISDOM endows us with the ability to use all Your other six spiritual gifts in their exact proper proportion. The baker is wise, O Holy Spirit, when he does not use too much of any one ingredient in his cake. The ability to use each of Your spiritual gifts of KNOWLEDGE - UNDERSTANDING COUNSEL - FORTITUDE - PIETY and FEAR OF THE LORD in exactly the right proportion is the gift or gifts. The gift of WISDOM. END OF THE BEGINNING This is the ninth day, O Holy Spirit. My intended Novena is completed. I must recognize the fact You gave me the FORTITUDE to persevere, the strength that made it easy. You gave me the determination to succeed as You will in everything You prompt me to do, if only I take time to listen for Your gift of FORTITUDE.
159
I shall take time to reminisce on my early childhood and each year up to the present time, to the best of my ability, with Your help and KNOWLEDGE, O Holy Spirit. I shall dwell on the past few months in particular. You will let me UNDERSTAND how You have been in my life daily, even though I was not aware of it. How You gave me the grace of Your seven gifts and how often I threw them away by neglecting to use them. How, on many occasions, Your gifts were there and I did use them, but in my pride, thought that I did it all by myself. But, why does it have to end? Why should it end? If I have not experienced Your close presence in my heart, I shall start over for another nine day, if You will only give me the FORTITUDE. If I have experienced Your loving presence in my heart, I will jealously preserve it. Relive it. Practice listening daily. A perpetual Novena. My hope and prayer is that I will grow into the habit of experience Your presence every moment of my consciousness.
CONCLUSION NEVER STOP TRYING THE HOLY SPIRIT DEMANDS FAITH MAN INVENTED TIME TIME MEANS ABSOLUTELY NOTHING TO GOD THIS NOVENA CANNOT BE EXHAUSTED EVERY TIME YOU MAKE THIS NOVENA, THE HOLY SPIRIT WILL ADD TO IT WHEN YOU PRAY, YOU TALK TO GOD WHEN GOD TALKS TO YOU, DO YOU LISTEN?
