This cathedral shop is small but has so much to choose from. Books, rosaries, statues, holy water 4rm France, oils, cards, crosses, and more. It was my first time her and will definitely be coming back. Would recommend this place if you are in need of anything holy. During COVID they do have limited hours Friday through Sunday so suggest calling before making a trip due to hours fluctuating. Mid priced not too high not too low. But has something for all.

Accused of stealing a $4 pin from a Church gift shop!?? Yep! I've never been accused of stealing anything ever in my life, let alone from a Church Gift shop lol.... Very uncomfortable experience. Went here with my friend who wanted to buy a Rosary for her car. I was considering buying a "Saint Christopher" auto pin thingee. I had it in my hand, and almost purchased it.. As my friend was looking around, I decided to buy the Rosary instead, and put the pin back on the rack. I put the pin back and browsed bit more with my friend before buying the Rosary. The clerk was acting very strange and didn't say thank you after I got my receipt. He had the weirdest look on his face. I sensed his energy was very bad, and I was a bit befuddled. . . I ended up browsing a bit more with my friend before she decided she didn't want anything. As we were leaving, he asked if I had the car pin thing. Basically accusing me of stealing it. I was shocked. Who steals from a church gift shop?! Seriously dude? I got back to my car and decided that I didn't even want the $7.00 Rosary and was so offended that I just gave it back, and told him to keep the money. If you're going to accuse your customers from stealing without any proof, I'm not interested in having anything to do you with your business. My friend and I were dressed in casual attire, beanies, and jackets as it was very rainy out. Maybe we didn't look like the regular church going crowd? Who knows. Either way, this was a horrible experience, it was embarrassing and rude to be called out for stealing when you didn't steal. The worse feeling ever. I saw that the weird clerk was counting all the car pins that were on the rack, so he soon found out that everything matched up with the inventory. He lost two customers who would have gladly came back to spend more $ in the future. What a bad experience.
