Donuts After Mass

Introduce children to friendship with Jesus

“Donuts After Mass is the perfect mix of fun, creative, and catechetical! It will make you smile and make you think!  Well done Bradvica family!”

—Fr. Mark-Mary Ames, CFR

Written for children ages ten to twelve, this humorous, comic book-style story walks with a not-so-typical girl named Emily who talks with Jesus.

As Emily makes ordinary decisions throughout the day and the liturgical year, kids learn that Jesus loves us personally and we are called to reflect his love in our ordinary decisions.

The comics and humor in Donuts After Mass: A Tale About Walking with Jesus are sure to draw in young Catholics, from voracious readers to those who do not normally enjoy reading.

This book includes:

• Whimsical, full-color artwork on every page
• Funny and endearing conversations between Emily and Jesus
• A beautiful and durable hardcover format

Free bonus: Those who purchase Donuts After Mass will be emailed a one-page guide containing reflection and discussion prompts to go with the book. This guide helps parents and teachers prompt children to think more deeply about the cartoons to uncover the spiritual lessons of the story. 

"Kids of all ages will love to follow along with Emily as she walks with Jesus. Her everyday ups and downs are a mix of funny and poignant, goofy and deeply moving. The charming illustrations draw you in and bring you along for the ride as Emily grows in relationship with Jesus. A book for every family, library, and classroom!"
