                  <p>The oldest and largest Catholic publisher in the country, 
                    Paulist Press is a major ministry of the Paulist Fathers, 
                    an order founded by and for Americans in 1858. From the very 
                    beginning, the mission of the Paulist Fathers and the Press 
                    has been to spread the Good News of Jesus, to explore and 
                    share the richness of American Catholicism, and to do both 
                    these things through every form of media available to the 
                    time.</p>
                  <p>Paulist Press was one of the first ministries created by 
                    the Paulist Fathers. Over its 140 years of publishing for 
                    the Catholic community, the Press has developed a variety 
                    of religious programs. It has also been called upon to distribute 
                    Catholic programs designed by other groups and ministries.. 
                    It became apparent that a clearinghouse was the logical way 
                    to distribute these diversified religious parish programs, 
                    family faith resources, Catholic school reading materials, 
                    and books and magazines for the individual parishioner&#8217;s 
                    quest for more fully living the Word. </p>
                  <p>Thus the <strong>Catholic Reading Society</strong> was born. 
                    The Society works through three different branches:</p>
                  <p><strong>The Catholic Family Book Center</strong>, which helps 
                    strengthen family values, provide hard-to-find Catholic literature 
                    for the home, and assist teachers with finding quality reading 
                    for children. </p>
                  <p><strong>The Catholic Reading Center</strong>, which delivers 
                    an assortment of high quality Catholic magazines and books 
                    directly to parishes on a monthly basis for purchase by individuals.</p>
                  <p><strong>Catholic World</strong>, which will educate, entertain,
