Our endeavor is to provide the best prices (nearly 1/2 price in most cases) on CD's and DVD/videos for missionaries and missions. If you find better advertised prices please let us know and we will beat or match them.
We are able to offer these great prices to you because we have made arrangements with many of the publishers that we sell to missionaries; at home, abroad or on furlough; full or part time, missions support staff, whether in the U.S. or foreign field; short term mission workers and retired missionaries. Family members or friends can also place orders for missionaries. For Overseas, our phone number is 1-509-548-0902 or 1-800-272-2442 or wic@mountcarmel.com.
