Email request
Use the Email option on this page and ask Monastery Icons to stop promotional postal mail. Include the full name and mailing address you want removed. Copy the template below, fill the bracketed fields, and attach a photo of the mailer if you have one.
If sending your opt-out request by email, use this helpful template for Monastery Icons:
Hello, I'm writing to request that Monastery Icons permanently remove my address from all direct mail lists, including your internal house list and any rented or third-party lists used to source your mailings. The name and address to remove as they appear on a recently delivered unwanted mailer: [NAME] [ADDRESS] [CITY ST ZIP] A few notes for your direct mail team: • I have never subscribed to marketing communications from Monastery Icons. • Since I haven't opted in with you directly, the source is most likely a rented or co-op list. Please also flag this address with your list partners so it's suppressed at the source. Please confirm in writing once the suppression is complete. I've attached an image of the mailer for reference. Thank you, [NAME]
Replace the bracketed fields ([NAME], [ADDRESS], [CITY ST ZIP]) before sending. Attach a photo of the mailer if you have one, and keep the reply for your records.

Phone
Call Monastery Icons at +1-800-969-1251. Ask them to stop catalogs for the name and address on the mailer.
A phone request can take 5 to 10 minutes or longer, depending on the phone tree, hold time, and whether they offer a callback.
What to Expect After Opting Out
- Allow 8 to 12 weeks. Print runs are scheduled in advance. A catalog already labeled can still arrive.
- Orders are separate. Stopping catalogs does not stop a shipment or return on an order you already placed.
- A later list add-back can start it again. A later purchase or catalog request can put the address back on a file.
Why Do You Receive Monastery Icons Mail?
Monastery Icons sells Christian icons, incense, and parish gifts. They call the art Windows Into Heaven and print English text on the icons. Christian Brands bought the line from the Sacred Arts Foundation and says it is continuing a forty-year ministry. Customer service sits at 5226 South 31st Place, Phoenix, Arizona. The incense blend uses resins from Somalia, Sumatra, and Indonesia. Buyers include Catholic, Eastern Orthodox, Episcopalian, and Lutheran parishes. They may share name and address with marketing partners so those partners can mail offers. The leftover mail is a catalog, not an order you already placed.
You get that mail if you ordered, asked for a catalog, or landed on a list they mail. A later purchase can put the address back on. The leftover catalog is often incense you already keep on the altar.
How to Prevent General Junk Mail Proactively

DMAchoice
DMAchoice is the Association of National Advertisers' mail preference service. An $8 registration asks about 1,100 participating national companies to suppress your address from prospect promotional mail for 10 years. It does not cover local mailers, charity appeals, companies you already buy from, or occupant / current-resident saturation mail. Allow 90 days or longer.
NOTE: DMAchoice will not stop mail from Monastery Icons as it is not an active member of the ANA.
-
OptOutPrescreen
OptOutPrescreen is the official Consumer Credit Reporting Industry site. It lets you opt out of firm offers of credit and insurance for 5 years or permanently.
NOTE: OptOutPrescreen will not opt you out of Monastery Icons mail. It only covers prescreened credit card and insurance offers.

PaperKarma
For local and regional mailers, coupon packs, charity donation requests, and the large share of junk mail that DMAchoice does not cover, the PaperKarma app has the largest U.S. registry, with over 100,000 mailers on file.
Your Data Privacy Rights (CCPA & Beyond)
A promotional opt-out stops Monastery Icons marketing mail. It does not always stop the underlying address from being shared. If you live in a state with an active consumer privacy law (California’s CCPA and several others), you can request access to or deletion of your personal information, and you can opt out of sale, share, or targeted advertising.
Go to the Privacy Policy page, or call +1-800-969-1251, and ask for a deletion or do-not-share request, and to opt out of catalogs.
Frequently asked questions
How long until Monastery Icons mail stops?
Allow 8 to 12 weeks. Print runs are scheduled in advance. If a catalog arrives during that window, it was likely already printed and labeled before your request was processed.
How do I stop Monastery Icons mail for a previous resident?
Call Monastery Icons at +1-800-969-1251 and include that person’s name and this address, or use the PaperKarma app to scan the mailer, mark the recipient as a previous resident, and submit the opt-out. Do not mark the person as deceased unless they are deceased.
Will Monastery Icons mail stop if I move?
Not automatically. Marketing lists are tied to a specific name and address. A USPS forward can send a few more packets to the new address. Call again for the new address, or use the PaperKarma app there.
