The following are the places that we have found to buy the Catholic liturgical calendars that coordinate with the Catholic Missal (which makes it easy to coordinate the date to the Saint's Mass found in various old Missals with the appropriate Ordo.Please Contact Us about Ads contrary to Catholicism.
Please include ad link.Are you looking for Roman Catholic saints or even particular patron saints? The Catholic calendars have the saints names on the date of the Catholic feast days which is handy when a new baby is born and you want the name of the saint of the day for the Baptismal name. Some Catholic calendars have separate lists of patron saints which is very handy when you have a particular theme and want to know which is the patron saint for that theme. Some websites have extensive search sorts that can find a patron by "cause" like Aquinas and More (top right on their page). For example: If your friend is a fireman you can find who the patron saint is and then find an appropriate gift or card for that theme. We know a town that raised funds for its fire barn by selling remembrance bricks. One of the townsmen bought bricks that said "St. Florian, pray for us." The ideas are endless, and a good list of patron saints is so helpful.
Some of the most interesting Catholic calendars are hard to find online. We will add more as we find them. Here are the physical addresses of those that we have found:
OUR LADY OF GUADALUPE MONASTERY
142 Joseph Blane Road
Silver City, New Mexico 88061
1-575-388-9279
www.ourladyofguadalupemonastery.com
The monks at this monastery have a beautiful desktop calendar with excellent pictures of their daily life as well as the Catholic feast days and a quote for the day.
They also sell many excellent, and some hard to find, books from good Catholic book publishing companies. What is great about their list of Catholic books is that it has ecclesiastical approval. They also sell magnificent caligraphy supplies, prints of the saints, crusader toys and more.
Call 1-575-388-9279 to request their beautiful full color 48 page catalog.
Other good Catholic liturgical calendars can be found at:
TAN Books and Publishers, Inc.
P.O.B. 424
Rockford, IL 61105-0424
1-800-437-5876
www.tanbooks.com
TAN Books and Publishing has an admirable history of finding and republishing Catholic treasures like the Douay-Rheims Bible, the Catechism of the Council of Trent, and the 1962 Roman Catholic Daily Missal.
The Catholic Missal has the feast days and ordo of 1962 so it is very helpful to have a Catholic Liturgical calendar to coordinate! The time that this is the biggest help is when you own your own very old copy of the Catholic Missal that doesn't have the Masses of some of the newer saints.

First Communion
