Print and Poem exists to create beautiful and engaging faith formation resources to savor every liturgical season.
The liturgical calendar is a way of telling time by telling a story that centers on the saving work of God in and through the life, death, and resurrection of Jesus. The year is divided into six seasons: Advent, Christmas, Epiphany, Lent, Easter, and Ordinary Time. Each season emphasizes important themes and practices that help us live more deeply into the story of Jesus.
In order to help individuals, groups and churches live into this story of God's grace, Print and Poem creates curriculum, devotionals, poetry, articles and artwork.
