Feasting with the Saints – February (Digital Download

This February, walk with the Church from the gentle light of Candlemas into the sober beauty of Lent. The February edition of Feasting with the Saints invites you to sanctify your kitchen and table through prayerful cooking, ancient discipline, and the faithful witness of the saints during one of the most spiritually rich months of the liturgical year.

February opens with the Presentation of Our Lord—Christ, the Light of the world—and moves through the preparatory Sundays of Septuagesima, Sexagesima, and Quinquagesima before entering fully into Lent with Ash Wednesday and the First Sunday of Lent. Along the way, the calendar honors virgins and martyrs, monks and bishops, missionaries, founders, and apostles, each calling us to purity of heart, perseverance in prayer, and readiness for sacrifice.

All recipes in this booklet follow the traditional pre-1955 fasting and abstinence guidelines, should you wish to observe them. These include meatless Fridays, the disciplines of Ash Wednesday and the Lenten Ember Days, and appropriate simplicity throughout the season, balanced with reverent festivity on solemn feasts such as Candlemas. The dishes are designed to be nourishing, seasonal, and practical—well suited to late winter kitchens and Lenten tables.

Each feast day pairs food with formation, offering not only a meal to prepare but a moment to pause, reflect, and grow in devotion while tending the daily work of the home.

What Is Feasting with the Saints?

Feasting with the Saints is a collection of twelve monthly booklets, guiding you through a full year of the traditional pre-1955 Roman Catholic liturgical calendar. Each volume celebrates saints and feast days through the simple joy of home-cooked meals, with thoughtfully curated recipes that reflect the virtues, cultures, and spiritual legacies of those we honor.

Designed especially for busy mothers, homemakers, grandmothers, and single women, every recipe is paired with a full page of enriching reading—perfect for quiet reflection while meals are lovingly prepared for those you care for. Across the series, all recipes follow the pre-1955 fasting and abstinence discipline, should you wish to observe it.

In January, reflect on the lives of saints such as Agnes, Antony, Francis de Sales, John Chrysostom, and John Bosco, and discover new devotions alongside familiar favorites. Our hope is that these meals and meditations not only nourish your home, but also deepen your love for the saints and anchor your family life in the steady rhythm of the liturgical year.

Thank you for joining us on this journey of faith, tradition, and feasting with the saints.
