Cookbook pre-sale ($25)

In 1977, the parishioners of St. Thomas Church in Jessenland collected old family recipes passed on for over a century. We have taken that cookbook and reimagined it with the original recipes plus new recipes and artwork, including a new section of traditional Irish favorites, while maintaining the charm of the original. We hope this renewed classic will be passed down to your families for the next 50 years.
It is currently being published and we expect it to be in by early December making it a great Christmas gift!

UPDATE: Shipping per book will be $6, so if you use our online payment, after you click on the 'Donate' button, manually enter the amount per book + $6/book for shipping. For instance, two books would be $50 + $12 for a total of $62 dollars. Let us know if you have any questions.

If you would like to secure a copy by paying with a credit card online, please click on this link and then click ‘Donate’. You will be notified when the cookbooks arrive and we will make arrangements for you to pick up your book(s).

Cookbook Re-issue Almost 50 years ago, the church published its first cookbook. It is filled with family recipes that span the last century. We are aiming to re-issue that cookbook with some updates. If you have some old favorite family recipes or have found some new favorites please share them with us.  We are hoping to have this completed by Fall 2025.  It will make a great Christmas present!
