(for more information on rosaries, scroll down) + SACRIFICIAL OFFERINGS IV RSDA: SEEDS OF ASSISI SERIES As gold in the furnace, he proved them, and as sacrificial offerings he took them to himself. + ANCIENT PRAYER BEAD SEED + WISDOM 3:6-9
+ A CREATURE OF GOD It has been said that this seed is the oldest recorded seed used to count prayers. Traditionally, they are used for rosaries but not Christian rosaries. Yet, we should realize this rugged seed is a creature of God and is not reserved for any one group of prayers or pray-ers! This seed is divided into 5 parts. And for a Christian, it is a symbol of the 5 wounds of Christ. Ver very limited. + PINK AGATE
+ PATERS ARE A NATURAL VARIEGATED 'PINK AGATE', FLAT LIKE A PEBBLE, WORN TO A MATTE FINISH. THIS STONE WAS MADE FOR PRAYER IN THE HAND. + We look carefully at its heavy texture and must say to ourselves that it is a powerful bead for prayer - certainly more sacrificial! Certainly it would keep one awake with its rough surface - until the prescribed prayers are completed. And of course, the goal would be to wear each bead smooth from many prayers! We have seen this done on a Christian rosary made of Rudraksha seeds (See Museum) and it gives one a sense of being near a sacramental that belonged to a very holy person. for more information see ROSARY + MORE LINKS SHOPPING CART |

I received the rosaries today. The special order Sacrificial Offerings is also a striking rosary. The 10mm moon and stars beads seem to be made for the large coral Pater beads. The turquoise and rust accents lend sparkle as the finishing touches. I have been a long time customer of yours, but you always surprise and delight me with your beautiful creations. They always seem to become more beautiful and creative! I do believe that our Lord has blessed you and the ladies with ever-improving gifts for designing and making rosaries of great beauty and inspiration. God bless you and keep you always, Mary Schilhavy (IN)
... soaking in His
glory ...
