When you live in the United States and choose to do business with an American-owned company, you can benefit in several ways:

  • Cultural Alignment: An American-owned company is likely to understand the local culture, consumer preferences, and business practices. This alignment can lead to smoother interactions and better customer service.
  • Faster Communication: Dealing with a company based in the same country means faster communication. Time zones, language barriers, and other logistical challenges are minimized.
  • Legal Protections: U.S. laws and regulations protect consumers and businesses alike. When you work with an American company, you have legal recourse if any issues arise.
  • Quality Standards: American companies often adhere to high-quality standards. Whether it’s products or services, you can expect reliability and consistency.
  • Patriotism and Community Support: Many people feel a sense of pride in supporting local businesses. It fosters a sense of community and contributes to the overall well-being of the nation.
Established in 1992 and specializing in Catholic-based items, we take great pride in working with seminarians to select their perfect ordination chalices.

Giving Back to Support Formation of Priests

  • Ordination Fund Pledge

    Purchase Ordination Chalice

  • We Donate Portion of Proceeds

    Use for home diocese in the Seminary Education Fund/Seminary Burse

Ordination Fund Pledge - How it Works!
When a seminarian purchases their ordination chalice from Southern Liturgicals, we will donate a portion of the proceeds, in his name, back to his home diocese for use in the Seminary Education Fund/Seminary Burse. We want to give back to lend our support to current and future seminarians by minimizing the expenses of educating our priests. We support our clergy!   
St. John Vianney once said, "A priest goes to heaven or a priest goes to hell with a thousand people behind them." I feel the financial support given to the formation, education, and training of our future priests will live out and be multiplied in the lives of thousands of souls that they will minister to in their priesthood over their lifetime. Without priests, we would not have the Eucharist! 
Restrictions do apply. Currently, this only applies to Seminarians whose home diocese or seminary is within the United States as International wiring of funds makes it cost-prohibitive. 

Testimonials

I would give Southern Liturgicals more than five stars if it were an option! Dr. Richard Duplantis was incredible to work with, quick to respond, and ready to answer all my questions and ensure I found what I was looking for. My Chalice exceeded all my expectations, at a great price, and delivered quickly. They have my highest recommendation.
