Product Overview

This is the story of a young Catholic, Hungarian woman who spent a year in Auschwitz because her parents were born Jewish.  This is a testament of her faith amid the absolute evil power around her.  She was 24 when she was taken, and was forced to work in the ammunition factories.  She wrote this book at the urging of her friends many years after her release, but it was not published until after her death.

This paperback book from Paraclete Press has 144 pages.  It was translated from the original Hungarian by Fr. Julius D. Lelockzy O.Cist.

Lisa’s Catholic Treasures

For half a century, I’ve collected Catholic-themed wood carvings, figurines and nativities. I began selling them to family and friends via open houses 15 years ago and added an online side to the business eight years back. Now, I’ve gone far beyond figurines and nativities and I have hundreds  of different items available for sale.

Online Catholic Store

Our online store is just the place to shop for gifts or items for your own home.  We have the basics:  saints, angels and Holy Family figurines, rosaries, crucifixes, and jewelry.  You will also find items related to the sacraments - Baptism, First Holy Communion, Confirmation, as well as Advent, Christmas and Easter.

We also carry religious books from board books, storybooks, young readers, adults and bibles for all ages.  Bibles include storybook and graphic novels for young people, those designed for First Holy Communion, middle school age, high school age, and adults.  You will find New American, New Catholic, NRSV-Catholic Edition and Spanish Bibles.

There is a variety of toys available on the website as well.  We carry a large selection of Shining Light Dolls and jigsaw puzzles with a scattering of plush, saints, activity sets and more.

No matter what type of Catholic treasure you’re looking for, you’re likely to find it right here on this website.

My Background

My interest in Catholic figurines and carvings can be traced back to my teenage years when my parents brought back a woodcarving of the Madonna and Child from their trip to Europe to give to my grandparents. I searched for that same style of carving for years, but eventually received the original when my father died. But the quest has guided me and led me to start this business of providing Catholic treasures to family, friends, and new friends.

My husband and I are lifelong Catholics from the Midwest, who met at a church in Colorado. We’re still active in our local parish community more than four decades later. My husband, three grown children and their families have all helped with the business.
