Greetings!
As we draw near to the end of another year, my heart is filled with gratitude for the opportunity to serve you—our dedicated and faith-filled members of the Catholic Marketing Network. We are blessed to work alongside you in God’s vineyard, fostering the growth of the Catholic marketplace. It is inspiring to witness your courage and dedication, especially in these times when trust and perseverance are more important than ever.
This past year, like many before it, has presented its challenges, but together we’ve continued to nurture and expand the resources and opportunities that enrich our Catholic community. Your commitment to evangelize through your faithful products, services, and resources is a testimony to the enduring strength of our shared faith. We are reminded that the work we do is not just for this world, but for the Kingdom of God, and that He is always with us in every step.
As we enter the Advent and Christmas season, let us pause to reflect on the great joy that Christ’s birth brings to our lives. Advent is a season of hope, anticipation, and preparation. It is an opportunity for us to renew our trust in God’s providence, confident that He will guide us through any challenges that come our way. As a network of retail outlets, publishing houses, manufacturing and distribution entities, and other businesses and ministries, we share the hope that our work will bear fruit and continue to serve the Church and the faithful.
Looking ahead to 2025, I am particularly excited about our upcoming CMN Trade Show, which will be held at the prestigious Catholic University of America from August 4-8, 2025. This gathering is not just for networking, building connections, and buying or selling religious articles, but also a time to come together in faith and fellowship. One of the highlights of the event will be the opportunity to attend a special Mass at the Basilica of the National Shrine of the Immaculate Conception—a profound blessing and a chance for all of us to recharge spiritually.
We understand the financial pressures many of you face, and our goal is to make this event as affordable as possible. By reducing costs, we hope to enable more of you to attend and benefit from the incredible networking, learning, and spiritual growth opportunities that the event offers.
It is truly a great joy and privilege for me to serve you and witness the incredible work that each of you do to bring the light of Christ into the world through your businesses, ministries, and missions. We are deeply blessed to be your partner in this vital work, and it is my hope that Catholic Marketing Network will continue to provide support and solidarity to this great effort we share.
May you and your loved ones experience the peace and joy of Christ this Advent and Christmas season. Together, let us continue to trust in His plan and move forward with courage, knowing that we are united in His service.
In Christ, Silvia Osong Executive Director Catholic Marketing Network
In the Upper Room
“Is this heaven? No, it’s Iowa.” You might recognize this iconic line from Field of Dreams, one of the most successful baseball movies ever, filmed right here in Dyersville, Iowa. The film tells the story of a man who hears a voice urging him to build something extraordinary to honor his late father. So, what could the Field of Dreams and Upper Room, a Christian Gift Shop, possibly have in common?
While we wouldn’t go so far as to call Upper Room heaven, my husband, Deacon Doug, and I also felt a calling when we took over the gift shop that started in the upstairs of a vacuum store back in 2015. With a background in business management, I was excited by the chance to lead Upper Room—a place where we could openly express our faith while putting my skills to use. Taking over the shop in 2022 felt like a dream come true, and with the support of the previous owners, parishioners, friends, and family, we embarked on this new journey.
Our vision was straightforward: to preserve the same quality products and personal service while infusing our unique touches. We set out to create an environment that fully engages the senses, allowing our guests to feel truly immersed in the experience. The store is infused with seasonal fragrances, complemented by gentle background music, and we offer daily complimentary Catholic Coffee. We've carefully curated our merchandise in a boutique style, using color and textures to encourage customers to touch and experience everything firsthand.
Originally located upstairs with limited accessibility and foot traffic, we knew we had to move the shop to a more suitable location. We relocated downtown, just half a block from St. Francis Xavier Basilica and its elementary school. From there, things took off. We reorganized, sorted, and showcased our merchandise in new ways. By expanding our use of Square POS software, we could track sales, monitor customer return rates, and analyze items by category, average tickets, and customer flow. As a result, our business grew by 21% in 2023 and is on track for nearly 30% growth in 2024.
What truly sets us apart isn’t just the metrics—it’s the relationships we nurture with our customers. The line “Is this heaven?” resonates with us as well, not for a baseball field, but for the sense of community we strive to build at Upper Room. We are a team of three women that are practicing Catholics and intentional about accompanying each customer as they enter our space. From the moment they are greeted to the careful attention given to understanding their needs and caring for their purchases, we are deeply aware of our calling to engage with them on a personal level. While not everyone has the time or openness for a deeper connection, we ensure that at the very least, each visitor receives a warm, blessed encounter, where they can see the light of Christ in us.
Our journey with customers extends beyond their time in the shop. We support them through prayer, keeping their intentions close to our hearts even after they leave. In the center of the shop, we maintain a list of specific prayer requests on rolled paper, which is kept indefinitely. This prayer list is prayed over daily and is visible to passersby, serving as a reminder of how we can lift each other up in prayer. I recall a touching moment when a young boy, around seven years old, asked Marti, one of our associates, to pray with him over the list. Together, they unrolled the long list of requests and prayed the Our Father over the intentions, embodying the spirit of shared prayer that defines our mission.
It's quite common for visitors to tour the basilica and then stop by Upper Room afterward. Recently, one customer was deeply moved by her experience in the basilica and approached our associate, Rebecca, with a desire to learn about the rosary. She mentioned that she was visiting from out of state but felt compelled to understand more about the Catholic faith. She asked if she could pray the rosary even though she wasn’t Catholic and wanted to learn how to make the sign of the cross. Rebecca graciously taught her on the spot. The customer was deeply touched and coincidentally, so was Rebecca—it was an unforgettable moment.
We offer Memorial gifts and often find ourselves listening as grieving individuals open their hearts about their loss and the significance of their loved one. In those moments, we provide reassurance and hope in the promise of the afterlife.
There are also times when someone who has fallen away from the Church comes to us. Regardless of where they are on their faith journey, we meet them where they are and offer a safe space for them to share their thoughts and feelings. We take confidentiality seriously and hold their stories close to our hearts.
The way the Holy Spirit guides people to the shop continually fills us with awe and wonder at how God uses Upper Room as a pathway to Him. As I’ve been writing, I thought about how it’s probably a common experience that ministry takes a front seat in religious retail and I’m not saying anything that most owners haven’t already experienced. I thought about how our store probably isn’t anything special but that is simply not true. Each place in our type of business is as unique and as precious as the souls that cross our threshold. We must see it that way otherwise we are nothing more than another store selling trinkets. May God bless each of us in this very important ministry!

Pray On Paper: A Simple Way to Grow Closer to God
At Pray On Paper, our mission is simple: to help people pray and grow closer to God. In a world filled with distractions, we've created journals that bring prayer back to the basics—pen, paper, and a heart open to the Lord. Our products aren’t just journals; they are tools that offer the "gift of prayer" to those who use them.
The Examination Journal: Bring Your Joys and Struggles to the Lord Daily
The Examination Journal was born out of a personal need—a need to make the tradition and practice of the examen not just a concept, but a daily habit. After years of searching for the right tool, I realized that nothing existed quite like what I envisioned, so I created it. This journal distills the wisdom of saints like St. Ignatius of Loyola, St. Francis De Sales, and St. Teresa of Avila into a simple, structured format that anyone can use.
One of our customers, Angela, describes it best: "The Examination Journal will exceed your expectations. The quality of the book itself is exceptional. It feels like something made back in the day, in the Old World where people cared deeply about quality. This book is a gem, and it will make a meaningful gift not only for yourself, but for anyone in your life who is seeking the face of the Lord."
For those seeking to deepen their spiritual life, the Examination Journal provides the structure and accountability needed. This journal has become a staple in many people's daily prayer routines, and Derek's experience echoes this: "I've struggled for years to incorporate a daily practice of examination into my spiritual life. This is the only resource I've found that is simultaneously simple, profound, and not time-consuming. The Examination Journal will be a staple in my daily prayer routine for sure!"
The Little Prayer Journal: Plant Seeds of Faith
Recognizing the need to nurture prayer in the hearts of the young, we created the Little Prayer Journal. Inspired by my own daughter’s struggles with prayer, this journal is designed to help children develop a daily habit of talking to God. It's more than just a diary; it's a tool that helps kids understand the profound simplicity of prayer and encourages them to make it a joyful part of their day. The Little Prayer Journal introduces children to various forms of prayer—giving thanks, asking for forgiveness, and praying for others—while also including carefully selected scripture verses to inspire and teach. Its durable design makes it a cherished possession that will withstand the test of time, making it a perfect gift for the Christmas season.
An Invitation to Share the Gift of Prayer
The Examination Journal and the Little Prayer Journal invite individuals of all ages into a deeper relationship with God. Each journal offers a meaningful way to build a habit of daily prayer or give that gift to their loved ones.

The Chaste Heart of Joseph
A Graphic Novel
How much do you really know about St. Joseph? He was once a little boy and played like all children. He had royal blood, and could have been a king. He was a young man when he married Mary. He was the brave and steadfast protector of the Holy Family. He’s the model of manhood … and he had a pure, chaste heart. Join Fr. Donald Calloway, MIC, as he tells the dynamic and inspiring story of St. Joseph, our spiritual father and the “Terror of Demons,” in this unique graphic novel for all ages, illustrated by Sam Estrada.
