The City of Waterbury in Connecticut occupies 75 square miles straddling the crossroads of interstate highways 691 and 84. Hartford, the state capital, is 33 miles north. New York City lies 77 miles southwest.

Waterbury, the "brass capital of the world" in the first half of the century, bears the motto " Quid Aere Perennius?" which means something like "brass is eternal." Brass is such a huge part of the city's heritage that it bears the nickname, "The Brass City." Another major industry at one time was the manufacture of quality timepieces.

Vestiges of the city's brass and clock-making glory days are seen in numerous clock towers dotted around along with old factories that once made brass castings, finishings and other assorted ornaments. Robert H. Ingersoll sold more than five million copies of his famous one-dollar pocket watch. Waterbury brass was, at least at one time, used to make the nation's nickels and may now be found in coins in South Africa.

A major proportion of the town's residents (72%) observe the Catholic faith. New Haven County statistics reveal that the remainder are divided between the United Church of Christ (5%), Judaism (7%) and "other" (16%). This implies that there is quite a market for Christian books, etc.

One of the oldest churches in Waterbury is St Joseph's, the first Lithuanian church in Connecticut and commissioned in 1894. Trumping St Joseph's is the Shrine of St Anne, established in 1886 as Waterbury's first French Canadian parish. Also older than St Joseph's is the Basilica of the Immaculate Conception. There are those who refer to it somewhat imprecisely as Westbury Cathedral.

For those who have lost direction and are seeking inspiration, or someone who is trying to find the right present for a friend or loved one, a Christian book store Waterbury CT is an ideal place to begin their search. Who wouldn't love a St Christopher medal or a coffee mug bearing an inspirational scripture from the world's No. 1 best-selling book, the Holy Bible. Whether you end up with a grand family Bible or a modest paperback, whether it sits for ages untouched, someone, at some time, looking to settle a bet or seeking comfort at a sad time, is sure to pick it up and open it!
