The Catechism states that businesses are “responsible to society for the economic and ecological effects of their operations” (2432) and we take this to heart!
All of our ESS books are made in the USA at a Forest Stewardship Council (FSC) certified printer that also recycles all leftover inks and scrap materials. To minimize shipping transit distances, we distribute inventory across multiple USA warehouses and ship in boxes made with both FSC certified and recycled materials.
We have also completed a strategic sustainability evaluation with Siembra Studios to develop ongoing stewardship goals aligned with our values as a Catholic small business. It’s a topic we enjoy learning about and we’re excited to continue growing in this area!
-
Mission: Our mission at Every Sacred Sunday is to invite each person into deeper relationship with Christ by creating spiritual resources inspired by the beauty of the Catholic Church.
Statement of belief: Our religious beliefs are summarized in The Nicene Creed of the Catholic Church.
ESS Motto: Our motto is simple — Say “Yes!” to God, one Sunday at a time. When we first started ESS in 2017 (read the full story here!), we had no idea how saying “Yes!” to the seemingly crazy idea to create a Mass journal would change our lives. We are forever grateful that the Holy Spirit put this journal on our hearts and we’re just so excited to see what God will do with your “Yes!” this year!
