Becoming Saints and Raising Saints T-Shirt

Becoming Saints & Raising Saints - A Call for All Mothers

Becoming a saint and raising saints aren't two separate callings. In God’s goodness, they grow from the same soil.

Motherhood is both vocation and sanctification. It’s where ordinary days become holy ground, where sacrifice becomes love, and where sainthood begins.

The Becoming Saints and Raising Saints tee honors that truth. It's a tribute to the women who show us how.

This design features 17 biological mothers who raised at least one child on the path to canonization.

Each mother’s name is rooted in three lines—symbolizing the Trinity—because their lives were grounded in faith, hope, and love.

From those roots grow flowers, each one representing a holy child whose cause is opened or who is already canonized.

Saint Anne is here—who raised the Blessed Virgin Mary. So is Saint Zelie Martin—mother of Saint Thérèse and Servant of God Léonie.

But we didn’t stop there. You’ll also find Blessed Margaret Bosco, Saint Monica, and the lesser-known yet mighty Emilia.

Emilia raised numerous children, among whom are five canonized saints from the early Church. Among them are Basil the Great and Gregory of Nyssa.

Every flower on this shirt honors both a mother's love and a child's holiness. And every name whispers, “This is possible.”

Between the rows of these saintly moms is the phrase: Becoming Saints and Raising Saints, boldly displayed across the center.

From that phrase, more flowers bloom—representing you and your children, growing by God’s grace and your faithful yes.

This journey isn’t easy. Raising Saints means embracing the mess and the mission with equal resolve.

It means teaching virtue between loads of laundry. It means modeling patience when you'd rather lose your cool.

It means whispering prayers in the dark and begging the Holy Spirit to fill in the gaps.

It means trusting that every small yes echoes into eternity.

This tee is more than a shirt. It's a visual reminder of your calling to sanctity and legacy.

Wear it to school pickup, parish events, or curled on the couch with your kids.

Let it encourage you on the hard days. Let it remind others of what really matters.

Whether you're rocking babies, chasing toddlers, or navigating teenagedom—you are Raising Saints.

And yes, you are becoming one, too.

This shirt is available in sizes S through 2XL and comes in two rich colors: Heather Deep Teal and Maroon.

The unisex cut is flattering without fuss and soft enough for all-day wear.

Each design is printed direct-to-garment (DTG) for lasting color and detail, even after many washes.

Gift it to a fellow mom who’s walking this road. Surprise your sister, friend, or spiritual mentor.

Or wear it yourself as a quiet declaration of your daily yes.

No sainthood story starts with being ready—it starts with showing up.

The saints featured here weren’t flawless. They were faithful. And they prayed their children into Heaven, one moment at a time.

If you’ve ever wondered whether the holy hustle of motherhood matters, this shirt answers with a resounding yes.

You are not alone. You are in the company of saints.

And you are Becoming Saints and Raising Saints.

Let’s walk this path together—one flower, one root, one holy moment at a time.
