Amanda Burton

owner & designer

Hi there! My name is Amanda Burton, and I’m a Catholic wife, mother of four (three on earth), graphic designer, and small business owner. I’m a cradle Catholic and second generation homeschooler, born to newly converted parents in Northern Michigan. I originally went to college to study music and vocal performance, recorded a folk album, and spent several years performing around the Midwest. After a period of discerning religious life as a Dominican sister, I came to understand that my vocation was instead to marriage.

I later studied theology and philosophy in San Diego, at John Paul the Great Catholic University where I met my best friend and husband through Catholic Match. In the midst of postpartum depression and anxiety, I discovered digital illustration as a creative outlet, which eventually led to the creation of All Saints Play. 

• I love discbound planning and scrapbooking
• Open-and-go, gently Charlotte Mason–inspired homeschooler
• St. Thérèse of Lisieux is my confirmation saint
• Philosophy and Myers-Briggs enthusiast (I'm an ENFJ!) 

Lindsay Carr

MARKETING & CUSTOMER SERVICE

Hi, I’m Lindsay, a creative at heart who loves finding joy in the simple, everyday things. When I’m not spending time with my family you can usually find me crocheting, curled up with a good book, or enjoying a cup of coffee. I’m someone who genuinely enjoys working with my hands and learning as I go, especially when it comes to creating something useful or beautiful. My personal motto, “I can probably make that at home,” guides much of what I do and reflects my love for problem-solving and creativity. DIY projects are one of my favorite ways to express myself, whether I’m crafting, organizing, or experimenting with something new. I’m always eager to try new hobbies and skills, even if they don’t turn out perfectly the first time. For me, creativity isn’t about perfection. It’s about curiosity, resourcefulness, and the joy of making life a little more personal and intentional.

• Convert to Catholicism 
   
• My ideal day is sitting somewhere cozy, sipping coffee, and reading a good book
   
• Lover of everything DIY
   
• Collector of hobbies

With Faith at the center of our lives, I’m always looking for natural and simple ways to incorporate intentional Catholic living into the joys and challenges of a larger family. My passion is finding ways to make meaningful traditions and experiences both practical and manageable!

I’ve been happily working with All Saints Play since July of 2025.

• I’m a second generation homeschooler
• I’ve managed to keep a sourdough starter alive for over a year now
• I’m an amateur fiddle player
• I love puzzles of all kinds - from escape rooms and crosswords to untangling the logistics of kids’ clothing and figuring out the plot of a suspenseful TV show.

Jenny Marchi

Curriculum & Blog Writer

Hi there! My name is Jenny Marchi and I have been homeschooling my 2 kids (6 and 8) for almost 2 years now!

I was raised in a household that had a deep love for the Catholic Faith and am ever grateful to my parents for instilling in me a love for the Church and her teachings. I went to Catholic school my whole life and have a degree in elementary and special education from Franciscan University. I met my husband in high school and we have been together almost 10 years now, with 2 kids! Together we led a high school youth ministry for over 8 years and during that time I was also teaching in a Catholic school (special education and middle school theology).

A few years ago, during Epiphany Mass I was struck with a desire to be home with my kids and thus, our homeschooling journey began - we’re really loving it!

Teaching of any kind is not always easy, but All Saints Play has offered me an easier (and fun) start to the day and a chance to develop teaching tools for my own kids, as well as others! I can’t wait to see what the future holds!
