Holy Humor: Funny Catholic Shirts

Joy is a fruit of the Holy Spirit, and plenty of us grew up trying not to laugh in the pew. These shirts are for that side of the faith: a gentle pun, a coffee joke after Mass, a wink at the choir loft.

You'll find Deer Lord for the hunter, Fore-Given for the golfer, Holy Grounds and Let There Be Latte for the coffee lover, Fleece Navidad and Myrrh-y Christmas for the season, and old favorites like the Vampire Repellent Kit. The art is painted in a vintage style, so the joke lands softly and the faith stays at the center.

They make easy gifts for a parish friend, a choir member, a Catholic dad or a godparent with a good sense of humor. Most of the newer designs come on Comfort Colors garment-dyed tees in lots of colors, and the older ones on Bella+Canvas tees. Tap any shirt to see it on Etsy.
