Just received my rosary today. The wooden beads are beautiful, each with a little different character. I have prayed the rosary just counting on my fingers at times, but nothing beats a nice wooden rosary with a crucifix for praying Our Lady's Psalter. This is my first cord rosary, and it seems sturdy. I will start using it tomorrow, even though I can't get it blessed till Wednesday (Epiphany) after the evening Mass. I enjoyed being able to design the rosary myself, though it was difficult choosing between the crucifixes and centerpieces. I was surprised that my rosary shipped within 24 hours of my ordering it. The handwritten card from T. J. and Annmarie was appreciated, along with the prayers. I plan to buy more for my family, including my daughter-in-law, who is an occupational therapist, like Annmarie, and who is also staying home to raise her two (so far!) daughters.
This is a great ministry, and I pray that God blesses all involved abundantly.
Ave Maria and ¡Viva Cristo Rey!
