"Thank You, Jesus, for the graces and gifts of this day. I praise You for the sorrow that detached me and the joy that made me so aware of Your Presence. I love You, Lord God - make me like You."

SEVEN SORROWS OF MARY - BLACK BEAD BRACELET
Also known as the Seven Dolors, this is a devotion instituted in the thirteenth century in honor of the sorrows of the Blessed Virgin Mary. This stretch bracelet consists of sixteen black 8mm facet cut beads each separated by two silver-plated spacer beads and seven medals depicting each of Our Lady's Sorrows with a larger medal of Our Lady of Sorrows to mark the beginning.
This beautiful rosary is made with deep cobalt blue facet-cut beads that have the shape of oblong spheres or ellipsoids. They measure 6mm x 8mm and the Our Father beads are all double-capped. The centerpiece features a picture of Our Lady of Sorrows and matches the image on the tapestry rosary pouch that it comes in. The zippered rosary pouch has the image on both sides and measures 3 1/4" x 3 1/4".
St. Francis is known as the patron of animals. In this outdoor statue, St. Francis sits with a bunny at his feet and a horse at his side. It is made of painted resin. The statue measures 8 1/2" high.
