Saint Martin of Tours for Kids | The Warm Cloak | Catholic Saints Story
Updated: Oct 18
Learn the beautiful story of Saint Martin of Tours, the Roman soldier who shared his warm cloak with a poor man and discovered that loving the poor means loving Jesus Himself. This animated Catholic saint story for kids follows Martin from the cold road near Amiens, to his dream of Jesus, to his quiet life of prayer, and finally to his calling as Bishop of Tours. A gentle story about charity, humility, peace, and seeing Christ in those who need our help.
After watching, families and catechists can talk about one moment that stood out, what it shows about following Jesus, and one small way to put that lesson into practice this week.
