Cook in style and share some humor at the same time with our natural Creation of Beer apron!

Share your enjoyment of beer or give as a gift to a friend, at the same time protecting yourself or a loved one from getting grease spatters or puffs of flour on your clothing while cooking or baking.

Life is messy; nourishing others and serving them can be messy too, especially for families with little kids throwing things "into the mix" as well! Serve God and serve others while sharing some laughs and loving yourself by upkeeping your exterior presentation - and tending to and orienting your interior life to serving God in others. Enjoy nourishing the people of God with the protection and style of this handy apron!

Home Decor
St. Joseph Guardian of Sons
Rustic Wood Plaque

This rustic wood plaque featuring St. Joseph Guardian of Sons comes from trees grown and harvested in Ohio and is 100% made in the U.S.A.. Each wood plaque is made from solid cedar, hewn and joined together by the hands of our Steubenville woodworkers, then digitally printed with hi-tech inks that slowly stain and permeate the wood with a scratch-free work of art.

Because these rustic plaques are made from real, solid wood, each piece may have minor cracks, knots, and other imperfections that add character and authenticity. As unique as human fingerprints, no two plaques are alike.

Smaller sizes of plaques are cut from single boards, while larger sizes are made up of several boards joined together.

Our image of St. Joseph Guardian of Sons is a depth-filled painting about fatherhood, the life of St. Joseph, and Christ as God-Man. This painting was made by Melchior Paul von Deschwanden, a Swiss artist, in the 19th century. A tender and contemplative St. Joseph - the foster father of Jesus - is depicted with the Christ child resting on his lap. Jesus is petting an ewe, foreshadowing his sacrifice as the "Lamb of God," and St. John the Baptist, pictured as a young boy holding a cross with the "Agnus Dei" proclamation, kneels and devotedly kisses Christ's foot. With forehead scrunched in contemplation, the tender foster father of God takes in the scene, presumably contemplating the great sacrifice that his Son will make and the Divinity of his child. A rod of lilies points to his great purity and the legend of how he was chosen to be the spouse of the Blessed Virgin Mary, and the axe next to him points to the hard work and labor he accomplished for his family throughout his life. The scene takes place in the clouds, a place of heavenly contemplation. As an altarpiece, von Deschwanden's piece rests in Kastelruth, Italy.

Handcrafted in Steubenville, Ohio, this touching devotional piece is sure to be treasured for years to come! St. Joseph, pray for us!

Enjoy your coffee, tea, and hot cocoa in this unique ceramic St. Joseph Prayer for Fatherhood mug!

This painting was made by Melchior Paul von Deschwanden, a Swiss artist, in the 19th century. A tender and contemplative St. Joseph - the foster father of Jesus - is depicted with the child Jesus resting on his lap. Jesus is petting an ewe, foreshadowing his sacrifice as the "Lamb of God," and St. John the Baptist, pictured as a young boy holding a cross with the "Agnus Dei" proclamation, kneels and devotedly kisses Christ's foot.

As an altarpiece, von Deschwanden's piece rests in Kastelruth, Italy.

Underneath the image, written on a scroll, is "Saint Joseph, Pray for Us."

On the other side of the mug, there is a prayer for fatherhood, making this a perfect gift for father's day or a father's (or priest's) birthday:

Eternal God, originator of Fatherhood,
I offer to you the blessed office of Father.
May the men who occupy this dignified place
protect and care for their children and wives
with valiant honesty, heroic chastity,
noble humility, and stern sobriety.

Ignite a fire in the hearts of men, O God,
so that they may respond to the Divine call
to fatherhood, both natural and spiritual,
and model themselves after the holy excample of
Blessed Joseph, Father of the Universal Church.

Through his intercession, may fathers
be strengthened to flee from sin,
subdue their flesh, wrestle with the
powers of corruption, banish the darkness,
and obtain victory over hell and its agents.

We ask this through our
Lord Jesus Christ, sanctifier of all men,
to the glory of God the Father.
Amen.

This 11 oz. high quality coffee mug imprinted in our shop in Steubenville, OH, makes a great gift for any event or occasion!
