St. Mary Magdalene Postel
Also known as Julie Françoise Catherine Postel or Mère Marie-Madeleine Postel.
St. Mary Magdalene Postel was a French educator who, during the worst years of the French Revolution, opened a clandestine school for girls and sheltered hidden priests in her family home, even reserving the Blessed Sacrament secretly when no priest was available.
After the Revolution, at age fifty, she founded the Sisters of the Christian Schools of Mercy, dedicated to the education of poor children. She lived to age ninety, governing her flourishing congregation until the end.

Testimonials
We love to make you smile! 😊
I've purchased several items from you folks. The quality is unbelievable and the service matches that quality. The prices are so much lower than a standard jewelry store and again the quality is way better. They are outstanding as a gift. Thank you all.
Purchased a rosary for my nephew's confirmation. I had some questions along the way and customer service was very receptive and kind... Hard to find such good customer service these days. It was very refreshing and very much appreciated!
I have ordered a few things from Catholic Shop, including medals with engraving and candles. As for the medals and engraving, super job and very well made and dear to my heart. I can not say enough about Catholic Shop, their customer service and guarantee.
