 "WORLD MISSION ROSARY" 
The more traditional form of this rosary shows each decade as one of the 5 colors.  It can get a little visually strong.  To subdue this beautiful rosary, we have simply drawn the 5 colors to the Pater beads for meditation, Each ancient faceted stone nugget is mined from the earth which unites us all. Each formed by the spoken word of God who gave each of us life. (White - strong flash back)

~ IN A GARDEN ~
 “As Adam lost the heritage of union with God in a garden, so now Our Blessed Lord ushered in its restoration in a garden. Eden and Gethsemane were the two gardens around which revolved the fate of humanity. 
+
In Eden, Adam sinned; in Gethsemane, Christ took humanity's sin upon Himself. In Eden, Adam hid himself from God; in Gethsemane, Christ interceded with His Father; in Eden, God sought out Adam in his sin of rebellion; in Gethsemane, the New Adam sought out the Father and His submission and resignation.
+
 In Eden, a sword was drawn to prevent entrance into the garden and thus immortalizing of evil; in Gethsemane, the sword would be sheathed.”  Archbishop Fulton J Sheen
