📦 Shipping Notice for Print Books
To keep shipping costs as low as possible, we recommend placing smaller print book orders whenever practical. Orders that exceed our print partner's U.S. shipping weight limit may be fulfilled from a U.K. facility, resulting in significantly higher shipping charges. If you're purchasing several print books, placing two or more smaller orders will often reduce your shipping costs.
The Vigil Linens — Katarzyna has been washing the altar linens since Lent began, but tonight is different. Her father hands her the heavy iron key to the vestry — cold metal worn smooth by generations of sacristans — and says only: the work is yours tonight. She stands in the doorway holding the key, her father's bent shoulders disappearing into the chamber behind the church where he sleeps.
