St Joseph's Day!

Hi, everyone... I would like to wish everyone a happy St Joseph's Day!
Follows is a St Joseph prayer...

Prayer to Saint Joseph
Blessed Joseph, husband of Mary, be with us this day.
You protected and cherished the Virgin;
loving the Child Jesus as your Son,
you rescued Him from the danger of death.
Defend the Church, the household of God,
purchased by the blood of Christ.
Guardian of the Holy Family,
be with us in our trials.
May your prayers obtain for us
the strength to flee from error
and wrestle with the powers of corruption
so that in life we may grow in holiness
and in death rejoice in the crown of victory.
Amen

St Patrick's Day

Happy St Patrick's Day to all!

St Patrick used the Shamrock to explain the Holy Trinity to the Irish people.
He used the three parts that make up the ONE shamrock to teach them how God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit can be present in ONE God.

An Irish Blessing...
May your blessings outnumber
the Shamrocks that grow
and may troubles avoid you
wherever you go.

God bless to all this St Patrick's Day! Robyn

Hi, everyone...

I just want to let everyone know I have two more sets for First Holy Communion listed in the store. They are Eucharistic Cup rosaries with options in both gold and silver tone, as well as Czech glass and glass-based pearl. You can choose the best colors for your Communicant!

Be sure to order early enough to receive the rosary in time for your Communicant's First Holy Communion.

Remember, also, this rosary can also be used for RCIA.

Thanks and God bless... Robyn

Polls

One more post for tonight...

If you haven't already noticed and voted in our three polls, please take the time to do so!

I have gotten some suggestions and thought it might be interesting to see what everyone thinks.

If you have a suggestion for either a rosary or chaplet and would like to see it as a poll, please feel free to post it under suggestions (in the February 2009 folder) or email me at paws4critters@aol.com.

Thanks and, as always, God Bless... Robyn

RCIA

A reminder... if you know someone who is going through RCIA, don't forget, I offer some beautiful rosaries for this special occasion.

Dad went through RCIA and one thing he wanted was a rosary. Having a great deal of Irish in him, he chose Patrick for his Confirmation name. He also chose a St Patrick Shamrock Ladder Rosary like this one http://www.sacredheartblessings.com/servlet/the-10/St-Patrick-Shamrock-Ladder/Detail.

Here are a few special rosaries I offer which make great gifts for someone completing RCIA or making their Confirmation:
This rosary features matching Holy Spirit Center and Cross with ruby red beads...

First Holy Communion Rosaries

Hi, everyone... I just want to tell everyone I have added some First Communion Rosaries to the store.

The pieces come in gold-plate and silver-plate. Like other personalized rosaries, you can choose both the "Hail Mary" beads, as well as the "Our Father" beads. These rosary sets feature a full-color center with the Eucharist Cup, grapes and bread. They also feature a Pardon Crucifix. I chose the Pardon Crucifix because of its meaning. First Communicants will be participating in their first confession, and I thought the Pardon Crucifix would be a great compliment. The back of the Crucifix has the words: "Father Forgive Them".

There is an example of one rosary I did recently for someone at my church. She wanted a rosary that featured the usual Crystal beads most First Holy Communion rosaries for girls use, but to make it more unique and personal, she used the girl's birthstone color for the "Our Father" beads. As a special request, the bead caps are made using gold-plated green cloisonne bead caps. These bead caps are not available in the store. Fortunately, if you like it made this way, you can email me a special request; however, the bead caps are only available in these colors...
Gold-plate: Green
Silver-plate: Red or Blue.

I do have another First Communion Set I will try to get listed in the next couple of days. This set features a Eucharistic Cup as the center and a crucifix which also features a Eucharistic Cup. These will also be available in gold or silver tone and totally customizable for your First Communicant!
