Mission Gift Shop

Moravian Mission Gift Shop: The Little Shop with a Big Heart

Staffed by volunteers from our church and community, our shop’s mission has been to offer financial support to local (20%) and regional (30%) needs, as well as worldwide Moravian mission projects (50%). More than $338,000.00 has been distributed over our 31 years of existence!

We are a unique gift shop, specializing in Moravian and Lititz themed items, many of them hand-made locally and exclusive to our shop, as well as distinctive items from emerging small businesses in developing countries. We try to be environmentally conscious in our choices.

There really is something for everyone – from infants to grandparents. It’s amazing how much we offer considering our shop’s small size! Included are:

  • Handmade local pottery, unique cards, wood carvings, inlayed boxes, wood paintings, and appliqued kitchen gifts. A variety of beeswax candles are made by members of our church.
  • Moravian mementos, seasonal decorations (especially Christmas ornaments, lights, and snowmen), and puzzles of several sizes.
  • CDs featuring brass bands, string and wind ensembles, Christmas music and traditional Moravian Church music.
  • Jewelry includes inspirational bracelets and necklaces. Our exclusive, handmade beach glass necklaces and earrings are beautiful and one of a kind.
  • Book selections including Moravian history and theology, Bibles, music and Moravian hymnals, Lititz and local history, fiction authored by local residents, as well as a small children’s selection.

And, of course, we have STARS! The exclusive Moravian star originated in Germany in the early 1800’s and has become known world-wide. We sell a variety of sizes and types of stars for indoor and outdoor decorating: colorful stained-glass, handmade paper, and plastic for indoors, as well as lighted glass, tin and plastic stars and garlands for the outdoors.
