CORAGGIO Mt. Sinai Rustic Leather Journal

This rustic leather journal belongs to our Coraggio collection, and features our Mt. Sinai design. For the writer in all of us, this 5 x 7” journal is the perfect compact size to take on every adventure. Now featuring our new wrap-around strap, each journal includes a leather strap that is used to keep your journal held together while you travel! Crafted from 100% soft, genuine leather, each one comes in differing shades and patterns - no two are the same. Each journal comes with a tag of the artisan’s name that personally crafted your journal and has around 100 pages of college-ruled paper. They are designed and engraved in our Steubenville, OH workshop.

Hand-crafted in Honduras, these leather journals were created by the individuals at Lazarus Artisan Goods. Through this ministry, men and women are taught to make high quality goods while receiving sustainable wages, health-care, and an education. Their goal is to not only help their workers financially, but to teach them to find dignity and purpose in all that they do. Both we at Catholic to the Max and Mission Lazarus thank you for helping support our teams of talented individuals.

[Coraggio Design - Mt. Sinai]
A pivotal location in the Bible, Mt. Sinai is a powerful symbol of our faith. Being the place Moses received the Ten Commandments, it serves as a reminder of the laws God gave us to follow on earth. Mt. Sinai is mentioned again in the New Testament, as Paul refers to it as a symbol of the Old Covenant between God and the Israelites, which we are no longer tied to due to the New Covenant with Jesus Christ. Even so, Mt. Sinai serves as an important location in our faith’s history.

Once, as Pope St. John Paul II battled illness, a Capuchin friar stood below his window with a fist in the sky and shouted, "Coraggio! (Courage!)" Inspired by this story, we at Catholic to the Max wanted to create a product line devoted to inspiring others to have courage and spark real life conversations about Christ. With this in mind, we've created a new set of designs that are Catholic, engaging, but also a little unclear. By stirring curiosity in others, our hope is when someone asks you about your shirt, journal, bracelet, etc, you have the opportunity and courage to proclaim the message of Jesus. You can learn more about the Coraggio brand by visiting our new website: livecoraggio.com.
