"Nothing is far from God"
-St. Monica
.
St. Monica of Hippo is well known because of her very famous son, St. Augustine of Hippo. St. Augustine wrote some of the most well known pieces of Christian literature, but there was a time in his life when he wasn't a Christian. It was through the intercessory prayer of his mother (as well as her good example and continued presence in his life) that he returned to the Christian faith. While he had never been baptized as a baby, because his pagan father would not allow it, St. Monica had planted the seeds of Christianity in his heart from birth.
St. Monica even followed St. Augustine from city to city to try to keep him from ruining his life with sin! Her tireless prayers and loving example ended up converting her pagan husband, Patricius, a year before his death. She also converted her mother-in-law (who had been unkind to her for many years!). St. Monica is an amazing example of never giving up hope.
Teach your children about perseverance in prayer! Introduce the story of St. Anne using the educational insert in the box. Encourage children to consider what it means to never give up on anyone, in the same way God never gives up on any of us. St. Anne is great for opening discussions about love, hope, prayer, perseverance, determination, patience, forgiveness and fortitude.

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.
