St. Bede's Books
Intelligent Companionship for your Spiritual Journey
St. Bede’s Books is owned by the mother-daughter team of Beth and Alison McNamara. They bought the store in 2002, shortly after Alison graduated from Simon's Rock College of Bard. Alison, a musician and artist, has an ear for interesting music and an eye for the loveliest faith-based artwork, jewelry, and other gift items. With over 20 years of experience in the ordained ministry, Beth brings theological expertise and practical wisdom to her selection of books that will challenge, inform and delight anyone seeking to love God with heart, mind, and spirit.
