Magnifica Humanitas, Pope Leo XIV’s first encyclical, provides a groundbreaking analysis of our times — the “change of era” fueled by technology — and applies the principles of the Church’s social doctrine to the challenges we now face. Boldly engaging human knowledge and innovation, Pope Leo proposes a path forward, one that safeguards human dignity, bolsters the common good, builds communion, and ultimately leads to Christ.

As we step into summer this weekend it's a great time to get ready for Rainforest Falls, while we still have VBS supplies in stock! Whether your parish needs their starter kit or you're ready to grab crafts, decorations, accessories, t-shirts, and guides to amplify your summer experience, we've got you covered!

A little more about Rainforest Falls:
🌴 Step through the mist into Rainforest Falls, overflowing with wild waterfalls, towering trees, and colorful creatures.
🦜 Beneath a canopy of chattering birds and howling monkeys, kids plunge into a lifelong adventure of discovering the nature of God.
✝️ They’ll explore what it means to be rooted in relationship with God, their creator, a safe place in life’s storms.
