How blessed we were on October 7, 2020, when we came together–both in person and virtually–to formally consecrate ourselves to Jesus through Mary after doing the 54-day rosary novena and the online 33 Days to Morning Glory retreat. And, oh, the roses! What glory! I’m thrilled to tell you that we have chosen a special artisan to craft our “signature rosary” out of the blessed rose petals. It will feature pale pink Hail Mary beads with pearl Our Father beads, and it will have a beautiful nickel silver crucifix and center medallion (with a rose charm attached, as well). These are heirloom rosaries made to last.
Each rosary is $125 (tax and shipping included), and they will be sent to you in the order that payments are received. You may order up to four rosaries.
To send payment:
- Venmo–The best way is to send your payment is via www.Venmo.com (or the Venmo app) to @Kitty-Cleveland.
- Check–You can mail a check payable to Christiaria, LLC at PO Box 843, Madisonville, LA 70447.
No matter how you send payment, please include your mailing AND email address! The first 50 should be going out in December and January. Some will be delivered into February if you are in the second batch of 50.
God bless and keep you! I love our little rosary family,
Kitty, does this apply to these rosaries? I am confused.
Editor’s Note: Blessings cannot be sold. If you purchase a blessed object, you would need to have it reblessed.
According the New Advent, Catholic Encyclopedia ” It is thus unlawful to exchange ecclesiastical benefices by private authority, to accept any payment whatever for holy oils, to sell blessed rosaries or crucifixes. Such objects lose, if sold, all the indulgences previously attached to them (S. Cong. Of Indulg., 12 July, 1847).”
Linda asks a good question! Yes, we are selling rosaries from rose petals that have been blessed, but we are not selling the blessing or marking the rosaries up in price because of that blessing. That would be the sin of simony, which some people mistakenly believe means the prohibition of selling anything that has been previously blessed. The rose petals were blessed by a priest and made available to the faithful after the Mass as a gift. We are simply using the same roses for these rosaries, but there is no “premium” cost added to the rosaries for the blessing. That is prohibited. The rosaries should be blessed by a priest after they are received. Hope that clarifies things for anyone who had concerns!
