A House is a Little Church 8x10 Print

Sale price$18.99
Version:

An 8x10 Catholic art print of the words of St. John Chrysostom, "a house is a little church," for your kitchen, entryway or family prayer corner.

The early Church Fathers spoke of the Christian home as a “little church”—a place where love, prayer, and Scripture form the heart of daily life. Just as the Church is a communion of believers gathered in Christ, so too the family reflects this mystery when it lives in unity, tenderness, and faith. As Fr. Ron Rolheiser reminds us, the ordinary rhythms of home—meals shared, kindness offered, forgiveness extended—become sacred when lived with intention and grace. In these small acts, the home becomes both sanctuary and school, forming us in the ways of love. Indeed, every house has the potential to be a little church, where Christ is welcomed to dwell at the center.

May Christ be the unseen guest at your table,
the quiet joy in your laughter,
and the steady peace in your love.

“For indeed a house is a little church” -St John Chrysostom

Meet the founder

Hi, I'm Erica

I'm a mom of three young children. My faith has carried me through both the beautiful and the difficult times of my life, and I seek to create beautiful things that are tiny reminders of God's presence in our every day.

Be A Heart started with a phrase I learned while volunteering in Brazil: be a heart, nothing but a heart. I draw every design by hand, and I'm always thinking of ways to pass down the rich traditions of our Church to my children.

Thank you for being here.
