Where is De Sales Catholic Bookstore?
We are located at 210-J West Sunshine Street in Springfield, in a shopping center known as Sunshine Corners.  Our store can be found just behind McAlister's Deli.

Find it at De Sales Catholic Bookstore!
We are proud of our Catholic heritage.  We offer books, gifts, music, DVDs, jewelry, liturgical resources, Bibles, and more from a Catholic tradition.  We gladly special order any book, as well as church goods, including candles, chalices, metal ware, vestments, and other church resources.

Because we are one of the only liturgical goods stores in the area, we are happy to help our Episcopal, Lutheran, and other fellow liturgical churches find the best possible (and available) resources.

FYI!
Summer Hours (June - August)
Monday-Friday  9:30 a.m.- 5:30 p.m.
Saturday: 9:30 a.m.- 2:00 p.m.

Pflaum resources at DCB???
A principal came in to place an order from a grant the school received.  Soon, we were talking about resources from Pflaum, including planners for both students and teachers.  She had no idea we could order such resources--and has since made a promise to check with us on future orders.

While we can't provide discounts on every order, we will do our best to research availability of resources for your school. Please, don't hesitate to call us before placing your next order for school resources elsewhere!
Ideas for Schools 2010

Treasure chest ideas on display
One of our favorite idea for classrooms gets a great start here!
Treasure ChestAbout two years ago, one of our customers routinely came in to buy large quantities of paper prayer cards--usually around 100 or more at a time. After a while, my curiosity had peaked, so I had to find out why she bought so many. The cards were used as incentives for her students to behave well and do their work for her music class. The idea stuck, and we began sharing the concept with other teachers in the schools.

This year, we are ready for school to begin, complete with tons of great, inexpensive ideas to inspire and encourage your students to do their best. From prayer cards to saint medals, rosary rings to pocket tokens, and even a few nicer ideas--for those EXTRA-special good-doers--we have things on display for you.

Unfortunately, none of these ideas are available on our web site, but please inquire about items that might be of interest to you. Be sure to mention that this is for a school, so that we can talk about discounts for schools and classroom materials.

Advent candles that are safe
Battery powered options now available at DCB
LED CandlesSeveral of our school customers have asked for us to track down some kind of battery- powered Advent Candle sets.  Many of these schools have been seeking out this option, due to increased restrictions with insurance companies. Fortunately for us, we have been able to track Battery-powered candlesdown TWO great sets that run entirely off battery power!

The first option (top) is an LED-based set, which provides a flickering glow to your room! Convenient votive size allows teachers to keep the wreath present and in view, but not taking up too much room.

The second option (lower) is a battery-powered taper, using AA batteries. Please be aware that the set includes only the candles, not the pictured wreath. Because these are taper style, odds are good that you have a wreath that would work on hand. If not, we will have plenty of options in time for Advent!

Both options here are affordable and ideal for classroom use, or in households with small children or pets. Contact us for more information or to order quantities for your school!

Our monthly update is now available exclusively through our web site. Please let us know if you like this abbreviated format, or if you would like to know more each month.  Our aim is to provide links to our site, so you can find what you need.
