Catholic Christian Store Opening in Plymouth
STATIC Gifts, a Catholic Christian books and gifts store, is opening for business in the city of Plymouth.
Plymouth, MI (PRWEB) November 17, 2006
STATIC Youth, LLC is announcing the opening of yet another division of its corporation in the opening of STATIC Gifts. "I can't tell you how excited we are in being able to provide for the larger community this important ministry," said Paul Sposite, one of the partners.
Doors to the store located at 875 Wing Street opened for business on Friday, November 10 to little fan fare. The store will try to provide for a wide variety of needs -- general gifts, candles, religious articles such as rosaries and Bibles, DVDs and CDs as well as both fiction and non-fiction books. "We are asking for those who come to let us know when they don't see something they want," said Carol Perkins, another of the partners. "We want very much to meet the needs of all the Churches in this area and we can't if we don't know what they need." The possibility is being discussed to eventually provide a Catholic Bible Study as well as Adult Education Classes and meetings in the store's small classroom.
STATIC Gifts is a part of a larger corporation, STATIC Youth, LLC, which has as its primary mission bringing the Word of God to the youth population. What began as specific need in one area Catholic Church to provide a different more engaging model of ministry to reach the middle school youth, has developed into an important ministry. "We are losing our Youth," states Sue and Steve Demaree, two more of the partners, "and if we don't change our approach we will never see them again."
STATIC Gifts is planning for a formal Grand Opening on Saturday, December 2nd. At that time there will be cider, coffee and doughnuts as well as music provided by Brian Walker. At 1 p. m. Fr. Gary Michalik, Pastor at St. Theodore's in Westland, will be in the store to bless this important endeavor. General public is encouraged to come and participate in the day's events.
