About Us – ParishMart
Who We Are
ParishMart is more than a marketplace—it is a social and faith-driven mission to support Catholic communities through evangelization, service, and connection. As your trusted online destination for Catholic resources and products, ParishMart brings together parishes, parishioners, and faith-based businesses to create a powerful ecosystem where commerce meets mission.
ParishMart goes beyond business—it is a ministry. Our platform empowers parishes to connect with their communities, promote parishioner-owned businesses, and raise funds for their missions. We believe that evangelization is not only about words but also about actions. Every transaction on ParishMart is a testimony of faith, charity, and service, creating a cycle of blessings that strengthens the Catholic community.
Inspired by the words:
"Let us not love with words or speech but with actions and in truth." – 1 John 3:18

Our History – From Vision to Mission
ParishMart was born from a vision to unite commerce with faith and mission. Powered by Gurupia, a platform known for building B2B and e-commerce solutions, ParishMart was created to help Catholic parishes harness the power of digital commerce to support their missions and communities.
The idea emerged from a simple question: How can parishes and parishioners work together to evangelize and create value for their communities beyond Sunday collections? The answer was ParishMart—a platform where faith meets action, business meets mission, and parishes become hubs of evangelization through service.
At ParishMart, every purchase, every sale, and every parish connection is a step toward building stronger Catholic communities. ParishMart is more than a marketplace—it is a movement of evangelization through service.
When you sell or shop on ParishMart, you become part of a mission-driven community where faith, commerce, and charity come together to make a difference. Together, we create a virtuous cycle of giving, evangelization, and support that echoes far beyond the digital marketplace.
Together, let’s build ParishMart. Together, let’s evangelize through action.
