Happy New Year to You! Our January 2022 Updates

Welcome to a new year! May it be a fabulous one for all of us!  We have just a few updates to report this month.

We raised a little over $64 with your donations, and our matching contribution, to Feeding America during our 3 weeks in December that we were open. For that we are very grateful and thank you for not only shopping with us, but also for supporting a very worthy cause. You are appreciated!!!

Unfortunately we have been impacted by the supply issues and the post office is adding insult to injury by increasing some of their rates. Because of that, we have had to increase our postal rates to cover the additional cost of shipping on some of our items. We are also being charged, sometimes double, for many of our items that are being shipped for us from our Attleboro, and Plainville, MA location. We will try to keep our prices as low as we possibly can but please remember that we do have to cover our own expenses. We are all volunteers here, but do have overhead expenses just like every other legit business.  It is still our mission to promote prayer and devotion to Jesus, that has never changed, but it does cost money to do that.

The supply issues continue to plague all of us, even those of us in the Catholic supply industry. We will do our very best to make sure that the items listed on the store are in stock and available for purchase. 

We want to thank our good friend and valued business partner, Lena Mor, for all of her years of expertise, friendship, and taste in choosing her holy land products. Lena was the first distributor of holy land products that we worked with back in 2008. Our entire inventory was her amazing olive wood, Armenian, crystal, jewelry, incense and oils, back when we were doing fairs and flea markets.  It has been an absolute pleasure to work with her through all of our years and we wish her a well earned retirement. She will be missed. (It is because of her I have come to just love the smell and feel of olive wood and AMBER!!)

New to the store this month are these amazing items! You can find them all by clicking on the link to the right of this post.

Peace,

Mare
