“After listening to this, my 5 year old now wants to go to Heaven”: Catholic Mothers share their Experiences

“My son, who is 5, wasn’t grasping the magnificence or glory of the concept of Heaven until listening to St. Cecilia’s story. Now, my 5 year old told me with enthusiastic joy that he wants to go to Heaven now!”

Sometimes I forget the incredible impact the lives of the Saints can have on children.

And, I often forget that there are still folks who haven’t heard of Glory Stories–our audio stories about the true lives of the saints!

But rather than me telling you why we love these stories (17 volumes and still creating more!), I want to share what other Catholic families have said:

Teach Children the Lives of the Saints

“We borrowed some from a friend, and my kids love them! Even my 3 year old can tell you about Bl. Miguel Pro, St. Joan of Arc, and St. Anthony of Padua. I bought the whole set to put individual ones in their Easter baskets and for birthday presents.”

“Our next door neighbor listened to the Mother Teresa CD, and now knows the ‘Gospel in Five Fingers.’ His parents were so impressed that he listened that they have now listened to almost all our Glory Stories. Now we have to get more for gifts!”

“I can’t say enough good things about the Glory Stories CDs. Our 6 year old son and 5 year old daughter love them and listen to them over and over again in the car. I buy them as gifts whenever I can. What great tools to teach about the lives of these saints and teach virtue! Thank you! Please make more!”

“I can’t believe how much my son has learned from these CDs!!”

“We have slowly grown our collection of Glory Stories over the past few years. And now, it’s my favorite gift to give another Catholic family!”

“Years ago when Glory Stories first came out I ordered one for each family of grandchildren. Each grand child (I had 6 at that time) ended up dressing up as one of the Glory Story Saints for All Saints Day at their school. They LOVE the stories! They still know the stories almost word for word….and have asked for more because the old ones are so worn and scratched from younger siblings.”

“As a mother of 8 with a wide variation of ages we discovered Glory Stories. As we have traveled we have all been the captive audience and in awe of what we have learned! Thank you!”

Entertain your Children for Hours

“On a whim, I put on the CD this morning as my 6.5 year old colored a picture. Despite his initial “I don’t WANT to listen to this”, he had migrated to the living room to hear it better. Less than 15 minutes in, completely forgetting about his coloring page! By the end of the St. Martin story, he was calmly sitting on the living room floor and stayed there through the story of St. Clare. Even more amazing, my 4-year-old ‘blur’ of energy was calmly sitting and listening too!!”

“We received a Glory Story CD as a gift a few months ago before Christmas and were so blown away by the stories and the quality of the production that we had to buy the rest of the stories for Christmas! These CDs aren’t just entertainment, they are immeasurable blessings for our journey that may help form the hearts of our growing children into loving images of God.”

“My children screamed in excitement when they saw the CD. We love the stories.”

“Amazing!!! I have never had my kids be that quiet on an hour long car ride before…all 6 of them! They kept asking to listen to them again and again! We all learned so much. The voices are great and the stories engaging!”

“We tried out the first two Glory Stories while driving together in the van. We were thrilled with how well these stories were told and how much all of our kids (ages 8 down to 2) loved listening to them. They were constantly requesting to hear these saint stories. So we decided to make the investment and buy the entire set and we are so happy we did. The saints feel like they come alive during the audiobooks and our children are drawn to the saints and to their virtues. These have become some of my very favorite Catholic resources for my kids!”

Inspire your Children to Love Our Lord

“This CD isn’t just well-done; it’s a godsend. When my kids and I listen to this together, I can’t help crying– not just because the product is so good but because the vision behind it is extraordinary. Kids (and whole families) are tasting the JOY of the faith because of these stories coming alive, as they should, in our imaginations and hearts and lives!”

“Really great stories of the Saints. My kids can’t get enough! I love how the stories weave the Catechesis of the Catholic Church, the Bible, and teachings of the Church in the stories as well. Really well crafted product.”

“My 4 and 5 year olds LOVE these! They are so well done! The stories inspire me and at times bring me to tears. Thank you Holy Heros. One of the best purchases I’ve made for my kids’ faith development.”

“The stories don’t only captivate our children, but also us, as parents. We have never come across anything like this before, and so we will be playing the CDs whenever we can, at the same time enriching our family’s spiritual life.”

“This was the first Glory Story we ever listened to. We have since been able to purchase them all. This one holds a special place in our hearts and is worth every cent!”
