Atelier-Beads
ROSARY BEADS, PRAYER, DEVOTION, MEDITATION
The word "bead" comes directly from the old English word for
"prayer." I derive great satisfaction from creating prayer beads
for all Christian faiths, including traditional Catholic rosaries, Anglican
beads, Orthodox chotkis, and the Lutheran "Wreath of
Christ." I have recently stepped outside my own spiritual path to create a
set of Juzu, Buddhist prayer beads, for
my brother. Prayer beads are truly universal.
