There are some works of art that do more than decorate a space. They tell a story, preserve a legacy, and become a lasting reminder of something greater than ourselves.
For more than a century, Pewabic Pottery has been one of Detroit’s most treasured artistic institutions. Founded in 1903 by renowned ceramic artist Mary Chase Perry Stratton, Pewabic has become internationally recognized for its stunning handcrafted tiles, rich glazes, and extraordinary craftsmanship. Its work can be found throughout the city of Detroit in historic buildings, cultural landmarks, and sacred spaces that have inspired generations.
For Catholics throughout Michigan and beyond, Pewabic holds a special place in the beauty and history of our faith. Its handcrafted tiles adorn churches, chapels, shrines, and places of prayer, bringing together artistry and devotion in a way that lifts hearts toward God. Each tile reflects a tradition of beauty that reminds us that our faith is meant to be seen, experienced, and celebrated.
That is why we are so honored to offer this exclusive custom Pewabic tile created especially for Rising from the Ashes.
This is far more than a commemorative keepsake. It is a 4 x 4″ handcrafted work of art that represents the spirit of our revival and the hope that God continues to bring forth in His Church. The imagery and design capture the heart of Rising from the Ashes: renewal,restoration, faith, and the promise that God is always making all things new.
What makes this piece even more extraordinary is the care and craftsmanship behind every tile. Each one is individually handcrafted by Pewabic artists using techniques that have been passed down through generations. From shaping and glazing to firing and finishing, every step is completed by hand. Hours of skilled artistry go into creating each tile, making no two pieces exactly alike. Every tile carries the distinctive character, beauty, and authenticity that have made Pewabic a Detroit treasure for more than 120 years.
To hold one of these tiles is to hold a small piece of Detroit history, a piece of Catholic heritage, and a reminder of a movement that is calling people to deeper faith and renewed hope. Long after the conference has ended, this tile will remain a beautiful reminder of the blessings, encounters, and graces experienced through Rising from the Ashes.
We are deeply grateful to partner with Pewabic in creating something so meaningful and lasting. It is a privilege to see Rising become part of this remarkable artistic and spiritual legacy.
