CoffeeWe are a small friendly Christian bookshop in a delightful East Anglia market town. We have a good range of up-to-date books for children (from picture books and puzzles to edgy teen fiction) and for adults. We have an excellent selection of Bibles, commentaries, biographies and devotional books. We supply Bible reading notes and can order any book you need with a quick turnaround.

We also sell Christian greetings cards, gifts, music CDs and cassettes, and DVDs. You'll find a warm welcome when you drop in for a cup of tea, coffee or cold drink.

There is free parking in the Market Square outside the shop. Our staff are all volunteers and involved in local churches.

Mission Statement
Our purpose is to be self-supporting so we can spread the Christian message whether through a cup of tea and a listening ear, a helpful book, the perfect card or small gift

Emmanuel Christian Bookshop

From the shop's About Us page:
We are a small Christian bookshop, closely linked to Emmanuel Christian Centre.

Started by Rev. Norman Ellison and his wife Mary in 1960, God has richly blessed this ministry and continues to show his faithfulness to us on a daily basis. The shop is currently managed by Jane Jones who overseers a small group of volunteers who serve on a regular basis.

We believe we have been called to be salt and light in Haverfordwest, providing a wide range of Christian resources, alongside a friendly face and listening ear to all our visitors.

Pilgrim's Progress Bookshop Secondhand Christian BooksAn excerpt from the shop's About Us page:
Pilgrim's Progress is a Christian bookshop based in the picturesque and historic City of Hereford. Situated near the centre of town with a car park nearby, it is an ideal shopping spot. Having recently moved, the new shop in West Street is more spacious and user friendly. The shop is known for its peaceful and pleasant atmosphere.

The owners, Mary and Isla Short, a mother and daughter team, have created a friendly, helpful and efficient service. The business is run as a Charity that supports the local homeless, addicted and poor. Profits made will be reinvested into mission work within Hereford including a Saturday night soup kitchen which began in December 2007...


Editor's Note
Previously trading as SPCK at 3 Palace Yard, Hereford, this was one of the shops entrusted by SPCK to the St Stephen the Great Charitable Trust. The business has since relocated and is now fully independent.

Situated only 4 miles from Hull and on a bus route from the city, Hessle Bookshop is conveniently located for people from Hull.

Customer Comments
This is a small shop which is in two sections: a general section and another equal-sized section devoted to Christian books. This used to be a separate business, Our Lady of Lourdes Bookshop (indicating the RC origins) but it carries a wide selection including mainstream Protestant and Evangelical publishers in addition to Roman Catholic resources. Willing to order material as requested.
