Hi,

I'm looking to buy a small statue of Saint Joseph in or near dun laoghaire.

Does anyone know where i can get one?

The "Divine Master Prayer Centre" at the top of Newtown Park Avenue has a shop I believe and may be able to help you out, not exactly my kind of thing though so I'm only guessing..

Veritas don't have a store in DL but via mail order they have a 20cm statute of St. Joseph for €20, free delivery in Ireland .....

Thanks guys, will try them both.

I'm terrible at this sorta stuff. Do I need to get them blessed?

That's a very subjective issue. While trying to avoid the vexed topic of idolatry, does it make a difference to you whether the statue is blessed or not?

It's important to me that what I'm doing is done correctly alright.

Ask them in the Divine Master place, they'll know the ins and outs.

Are you giving the statue as a gift to someone and are you wondering if they'll ask if it has been blessed?
