Founded by Bill and Mary Peffley, the Catholic Shop's first location opened in Norristown, Pa., in 1958. The store's Chantilly location opened its doors in 1993. Since then, it has earned a reputation as one of the best religious-themed stores in the region for its selection of beautiful ceramics, clothing, picture frames, religious decorations, books and more. If you're looking for something with a Catholic or Christian theme to it - whether it be a miniature statue for your garden, a unique gift for a baptism, or a Nativity scene for Christmas, The Catholic Shop is likely to have it. The staff treats its customers with the same hometown hospitality you'd expect from this kind of business.
