This ministry was inspired by John Paul II's letter to artists and by a constant desire to create for the Creator and for those works to draw us closer to Him.
Our mission:
- To magnify John Paul II's call to artists to create new sacred works that draw us to adoration, prayer, and to the love of God.
- To be a source of inspired Catholic art for places of worship.
- To encourage the creation of sacred spaces in the home through inspired art.
This site will always contain original art pieces. We believe that prayerfully created artwork, by the hands of the artist, contain that spark from the Creator that is lessened in mass production. The US bishops agree:
Quality art draws the
beholder to the Creator, who stands behind the artist sharing his own
creative power, for the "divine Artist passes on to the human artist a
spark of his own surpassing wisdom."163
This is true of music, architecture, sculpture, painting, pottery
making, textiles, and furniture making, as well as other art forms that
serve the liturgical environment.
The integrity and energy of a piece of art, produced individually by the
labor of an artist, is always to be preferred above objects that are
mass-produced.

If you have any questions please email us and we will respond quickly. We encourage artists to read what has been written to them and about them and prayerfully awaken that inner voice that has been calling them to create for the Creator.
God Bless You.
