Beautiful Basilica Window Crystal and Stone Rosary

Inspired by the beautiful colors and designs of Catholic Basilica, Cathedral, and Chapel Windows, this magnificently exquisite rosary features stunning 8 mm Genuine Crystal, Amethyst, Blue Lapis, Rose Quartz, Jasper, and Turquoise Stone beads and 10 mm Genuine Crystal beads. Praying the rosary with your family or with members of your faith community is also a great way to use the prayer as a way to spend time in Catholic fellowship with others. These Rosary mysteries are stories from the new testament and the goal of the rosary is that while those prayer repetitions keep you focused you’re really thinking about the mystery associated with each decade. While the rosary itself is a decidedly Marian practice, almost all of the mysteries of the rosary walk you through the life of Jesus. Even if you do choose to say your rosaries by yourself, they can still bring you closer to others. While some people use the rosary strictly as a meditative tool, many people also say the rosary with an “intention.” Your intention can be anything that you want to use the rosary to pray for. If you don’t have specific intentions, you can pray for something else, like the souls in Purgatory or the intentions of the Holy Father, the Pope. This Rosary features a beautiful ornate Miraculous Medal Centerpiece. It includes a step by step "How to Pray the Rosary" Pamphlet, Velvet Pouch to Keep your rosary safe, a Catholic prayer card and beautifully gift boxed. Approximate length is 80 cm (31.5 in). Designed exclusively by Catholic Heirlooms in California, USA.
