Live your Catholic faith EVERYDAY with the Liturgical Year!

Howdy y'all and welcome!

I'm Genie Shaw : a second-generation homeschooling mom to 7 wee ones, deep in the heart of Texas.

Barefoot Abbey is a peek into the Domestic Monastery of our home and the simple, inexpensive ways we live out our Catholic faith through the Liturgical Year.         

Our prayer is that our resources help your family along on the journey to heaven each day, one Feast, Fast, & Feria at a time.

The Christmas Novena is an Advent must! Written in 1721 & modeled after the monastic office, this rich devotion is like a 9 day Jesse Tree.

Give your family calm and space to prepare their hearts for Christ's birth through the gift of Music in this Advent Calendar of Handel's Messiah.
