Virgin Mary Mt. Carmel, Saint Religious Medals Bracelet
Feast of Our Lady of Mount Carmel, or of the Scapular
July 16
The Church celebrates on this day the feast of the Scapular of Mount Carmel. The scapular, which derives its name from the Latin wordscapulæ, meaning shoulders, is a dress which covers the shoulders. It is mentioned in the rule of Saint Benedict as worn by monks over their other dress when they were at work, and it now forms a regular part of the religious dress in the old Orders. But it is best known among Catholics as the name of two little pieces of cloth worn out of devotion to the Blessed Virgin over the shoulders, under the ordinary garb, and connected by strings. The devotion of the scapular, now almost universal in the Catholic Church, began with the Carmelites. The history of its origin is as follows: During the thirteenth century the Carmelite Order suffered great persecution, and July 16, 1251, while Saint Simon Stock, then general of the Order, was at prayer, the Blessed Virgin appeared to him, holding in her hand a scapular. Giving it to the saint, she said,"Receive, my dear son, this scapular of thy Order, as the distinctive sign of my confraternity, and the mark of the privilege which I have obtained for thee and the children of Carmel. It is a sign of salvation, a safeguard in danger, and a special pledge of peace and protection till the end of time. Whosoever dies wearing this shall be preserved from eternal flames."

"Sacrificial Love" Catholic Religious Medals Bracelet
I used a our Lady of Sorrows vintage cameo as Her Sacrificial Love because as a mother knowing Her son will come to redeem us She offered Herself to offer a Mother's Love to Our Lord and the anguish to surrender Him
I also used a unique Crucifix
I asked Jesus, "How much do you love me?"
"This much," He said.
And He stretched out His arms, and He died.
For God so loved the world, that He gave His Only Son, that we should not die, but have eternal life!
This is a bold statement of your faith. I used large beads . Glass hearts representing Our Lord's and Blessed Mother's Love for us.
I used red crystals representing Our Lord's Precious Love and white aurora borealis Czech. glass beads representing Our Lady's Tears.
I hope I could convey the message thru this bracelet of love Our Lord and Our Blessed Mother have for us that He was willing to have died the way He did and Our Blessed Mother to accept His surrender.
