It can be frustrating and difficult to find a local Catholic store – sometimes an online search does not come up with desired results. So, in an effort to help alleviate the aggravation this can cause, Aquinas and More has launched the Catholic Store Finder, making it easy and possible to search for Catholic stores near you.
The new site, located at catholicstorefinder.com, contains information for many Catholic stores located in the United States. There is a map to click on so you can find stores in a specific state, or you can search by zip code or store name. This site is still a work in progress, and needs user input to get more accurate and detailed information, so if there is a Catholic store near you that you do not see listed at Catholic Store Finder, please leave a comment at the site so that it can be added.
There are also several countries listed with Catholic stores, but Aquinas and More is hoping that people will help add to the list with other non-US Catholic stores that they know of.
Currently, the profile for any store in the database includes store contact information, a map, and any trade group affiliations, and also notes if the store guarantees the faithfulness of is products to the Magisterium and mentions if the store does not carry Chinese-made products. Eventually, store owners will be able to keep their own information current; at the moment, however, updates should be made through the contact field on the site.
Aquinas and More often gets calls from people wondering if there are any Catholic stores near them. Now there is a quick and easy way for anyone looking for this information to find out where the closest Catholic store can be found. Catholic Store Finder – Your Faith. Locally.
