Testimonials

I just wanted you to let you know that I absolutely LOVE the chalice and
paten that we ordered from you!!!!!
I wish we had the money to purchase another set for next Lent. I am so
proud of them! But I can always find something for my home!!!! I will
definitely pass you name and card on to my other clergy colleagues.

Thank you so much for making our worship experience all the more better!
Blessings!

Rev DRB
