CATHOLIC TRIVIA OF THE SAINTS FOR CHILDREN
CATHOLIC TRIVIA OF THE SAINTS FOR CHILDREN
WEEK 10 APRIL 1st TO APRIL 7th
THE HELP/CLUES ARE NOW IN THIS SECTION, NOT YOUR PAGES
SUNDAY'S QUESTION: This question is about Saint Silverius. One unusual thing about Saint Silverius is that he was just a _________ when he was chosen to be the pope.
LAST SUNDAY'S ANSWER: The last question was a true or false about St. Alexius (Alexis). It was false. St. Alexis did live as a poor beggar, but he was not recognized by his parents and all who knew him.
RULES OF THE GAME
To get this started, here are the initial rules/guidelines for this activity. A trivia question will be posted 3 times a week. Each participant will get one point for each correct answer. The participant with the most points will win that week. In the event of a tie, a drawing will be held to determine the winner. We ask that the losers pray 1 Our Father and 3 Hail Marys for the winner.
Any clarifications or additional rules will be posted soon with the first question. May God bless all who participate and may this thread lead to an increase in knowledge of and devotion to the many wonderful saints of our Catholic Faith.
Please check your pages for the information I post to help you answer the questions. The paragraph(s) with the answer(s) will be bold and/or italic. If you still can't figure it out, or can but need help to understand it, either find me in chat or post a message here in trivia. I want you to know/understand the information about the current saint before going on to the next.
Mary, Help of Christians, pray for us.
Saint Dominic, pray for us.
Saint Joan of Arc, pray for us.
Saint Michael the Archangel, defend us in battle.

The last question was about St. Dorothy. A lawyer mocked her while she was dying for her faith in Jesus Christ. Later a child appeared at his front door with three freshly picked apples and three freshly picked roses. He became a Christian and later died a martyr as well.
Today's question is about St. Gertrude the Great. Our Lord told her that every time the prayer on your fun fact sheet was said, 1,000 souls would be released from ______.

Until schedules allow more of the children to participate regularly, let's continue to say an Our Father and three Hail Marys for all of them.
The last question was about St. Jerome. He is best known for translating the Bible into Latin, a translation that was praised by the Council of Trent. St. Jerome also reminds us that we do not worship the saints as gods. Intead we honor them in our worship of Him whose saints they are. All ye saints, pray for us.
Today we start a series about the fourteen holy helpers. Although we will learn something about each one, devotion to them as a group started in Germany because of a disease called the Black Plague. Here is an example of what is on your page: Achatius against headaches. So we know to seek the intercession of St. Achatius when we have a headache. Several of the saints help with the protection of domesticated animals (pets and farm animals). One of them is Saint _______. Here is the bonus question. Another saint to pray to when we have a headache, is St. _____.
