Our
Mission
Angelus Press aims to promote
the immemorial Traditions of the Catholic Faith and the Tridentine Rite of the
Mass with an unswerving commitment to orthodoxy and the Magisterium of the
Roman Catholic Church. As an apostolate of the
Catholic press, we have the mission of spreading the Faith through the printed
word by our books and magazine publications. We offer resources ranging
from the promotion of the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass, the spiritual life, and
lives of the Saints, to the crisis in the Church, theology, liturgy, and
catechetics -- anything that will help the Christian save his soul.
We pray that the Good
Lord will continue to bless our apostolate of bringing the integral Catholic
Faith to modern men, some of whom, by the grace of God, still seek Him Who is
the Way, the Truth and the Life (Jn 14:6).
History
Angelus Press
was founded in 1978 in Dickinson, Texas by Fr. Carl Pulvermacher, OFM. It
began as an apostolate of the Society of St. Pius X to promote Catholic
literature. Since its conception, Angelus Press has published a monthly
magazine – The Angelus -- "A Journal of Roman Catholic Tradition.”
In time, Angelus
Press began to publish and print its own books on rudimentary presses. Collation
was done completely by hand – a most time-consuming process.
From the
confines of our humble Texas shack, we moved to Kansas City, Missouri in 1992,
occupying the basement and the first floor of the SSPX’s St. Vincent’s
Priory (formerly known as the Regina Coeli House).
Due to continued
growth, Angelus Press moved its operations to its own 5,000 square-foot
facility in 2002, just a stone's throw away from our former location.
By the grace of
God, after 5 more years of outstanding growth, this building is reaching full
capacity. Fortunately, we have a little room to grow and additions may
not be far off. At the present time, Angelus Press offers over three
hundred titles, of which over 100 are our own publications. And while we
no longer do our own printing, we continue to publish, house, and ship from our
current location.
