That Catholic Shop is an initiative and work of the Australian arm of the Pontifical Foundation, Aid to the Church in Need. Aid to the Church in Need is the only international Catholic charity dedicated to the support of suffering and persecuted Christians. Every purchase you make here goes to support this work to keep the faith alive in those places where it is most at risk.
Operating in Australia since 1965, Aid to the Church in Need Australia has had a long history of distributing religious items. Many benefactors first came to the charity after seeing an ad in the Catholic press inviting a donation in exchange for a set of rosary beads.
Over the years, the Australian office has become known for making available catechetical books, devotional materials, rosaries, and crosses as well as wood items from the Holy Land. The proceeds from all these items have supported the mission of Aid to the Church in Need but importantly, they have also increased the spiritual life of those who took the items into their homes and their hearts.
As a spiritual and pastoral foundation, the work of Aid to the Church in Need has never only been about raising funds, it is very much about prayers, prayers for Christians in need and prayers for our benefactors who make our work possible
That Catholic Shop is an exciting development for Aid to the Church in Need Australia. As it grows, we hope that it will become a go-to place for anyone looking for Catholic gifts and devotional items, Catholics, non-Catholics, parishes, schools, groups, and movements.
So next time someone you know is looking for something Catholic, be sure to tell them to check out, That Catholic Shop.
Items from That Catholic Shop are currently only available within Australia and New Zealand.
