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!

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!
About
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
Several
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 down
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!
