Where is De Sales Catholic Bookstore?
We are located at 210-J West Sunshine Street in Springfield, in the Sunshine Corners Shopping Center. Our store can be found between McAlister's Deli and Fitness 19.

What do we sell?
We are proud of our Catholic heritage. We offer books, gifts, music, DVDs, liturgical resources, Bibles, and more from a Catholic tradition. We also gladly special order books of all kinds, as well as church goods, including candles, chalices, metalware, 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.

New, BIG News
De Sales Catholic Bookstore reaching out to customers
Times may be tough, but we are trying to make things just a little bit easier. In the coming weeks, De Sales Catholic Bookstore will be showcasing the wonderful books, media, and gifts our store offers. Each month, we will feature a coupon offer on one thematic section. From September 1 through September 30, the focus will be on our Spirituality, Women's Spirituality, and Fiction sections. Please be aware that these coupon offers cannot be combined, and will be excluded from clearance merchandise and other discounts and promotions.

Come in, make a purchase, get a coupon. It's really that simple! Our staff is already discussing other promotional options, including an online coupon code, as well as a frequent shopper program.

Keep checking our blog and our website for additional information and updates. As always, the best way to stay up-to-date on new info about DCB is simply to come by the store. We look forward to seeing you!

Come in to take a look at our children's section, complete with reproducible activity books, coloring and story books, Bible stories, saint books, and inspirational reading for your catechists.

If you work with adults entering the faith, by all means, ask about our Faith Formation section, including a recent release from Oscar Lukefahr! This is a great time enhance your parish library, prepare a list of new materials, or replace older copies.
