A Christmas Present...

Today, my friend, Celeste from Celestina Marie Design posted about a Rosary (in the photo below) that she received from me.  It was a lovely story that she shared.   I have been extremely blessed by the friendships my Rosaries have led to.

  1. Hi Jan, Oh this is so like you to give another gorgeous rosary away to a dear heart. That person doesn't even know yet, what a blessing is on the way.
    Thank you for your generosity and giving heart my friend.
    You are such a gift to me and I am blessed by your friendship.

    Thank you for the mention in your wonderful giveaway. I hope to send many your way.

    Hugs, Celestina Marie

  3. Good Morning Jan, Celestina is a good blogging friend of mine and she wrote me to tell me about you and the rosaries you make. Her rosary is exquisite, what a treasure to own. I also grew up praying the rosary with my mother and godmother. I remember when I had a date with my now husband, that I couldn't leave on the date until we prayed the rosary. It has a very special meaning to me. Also told me about your bell's palsy, my mother also had it. I will pray for you. Blessings...Lu

  4. Such a sweet thing to do Jan, lovely Rosary. I have one from my childhood that my grandpops gave me. A comfort to hold and marvel at Gods Glory and Power. Thanks for an opportunity to have one of your beautiful creations. Merry Christmas. Di

  5. It is in giving that we truly receive.

    I myself have a lovely collection of French medals, rosaries and religious sculptures that I truly treasure.

    May this gift of love bring many blessings to the one who needs it.

    May the peace, joy and love of the season be yours all year long!

  6. I found your blog by way of Celestina Marie's page. The rosary you made is the most beautiful one I have seen.....you are so talented.

    I am sorry to read about your Bell's Palsy....I was diagnosed with Lyme Disease 2009 and in my researching Lyme have read that many with Lyme have Bell's Palsy as one of the symptoms...just to make you aware.

    Healing wishes.
