Catholic Virgin Mary OL Mr Carmel Catholic Locket Shrine Religious Pendant

I created another one of a kind embellished locket shrine honoring Our Lady of Mt. Carmel.  I truly love creating these embellished altered art lockets.  It takes a lot of time to gather the special pieces that will create each piece and more time to make sure every piece falls into place in harmony to finish one piece and all pieces coincide and appear so beautiful and it's worth the time and the effort for each one being so unique and special.  

I have always been inspired how in Latin American Our Blessed Mother has been adorned with so many beautiful embellishments including lace, crystals and pearls and that was my inspiration for this piece.

I collected several pieces which are vintage including rhinestones and roses and I also added on the back a beautiful vintage sequin lace.

The Memorare of St. Bernard

Remember, O most gracious

Virgin Mary, that never was it

Known that any one who

Fled to thy protection, implored

Thy help, and sought thy

Intercession,

was left unaided.

Inspired with this confidence,

I fly unto thee, O Virgin of

Virgins, my Mother, to thee I

Come, before Thee I stand sinful

and sorrowful. O Mother of the Word Incarnate!

Despise not my petitions, but, in Thy

mercy, hear and answer me

in the midst of Your days of glory,  

do not forget the sorrows of this earth.  

Cast a merciful glance upon those who are suffering

 struggling against difficulties, 

 with their lips constantly pressed 

against life’s bitter cup.  

Have pity on those who love each other

 and are separated. 

Have pity on our rebellious hearts.

 Have pity on our weak faith. 

Have pity on those who weep, 

on those who pray, 

on those who fear.

 Grant hope and peace to all. 

 Amen.

I have a picture of Our Lady of Lourdes in my room and my granddaughter loved it and wanted me to take her to Wal-Mart to buy her one, she thinks Wal-Mart may sell them and I explained to her they don't have them there, she then told me to take her to Target to find one, that just filled me with so much joy that she expressed so much love for Our Lady of Lourdes.

Virgin Mary Catholic Locket Shrine Religious Necklace

I compassionate thee,

O most sorrowful Mother!

Thy heart was pierced
with a sword of grief
when Simeon foretold to thee
in the Temple the ignominious death
and the desolation
of thy Divine and most dear Son,
which thou west destined one day to witness.
By the great anguish of thy suffering heart,
O gracious Queen of the universe,
impress upon my mind,
in life and in death,
the sacred Passion of Jesus
and shine own sorrows.
Amen.

 have obtained the cure for their infirmities - 

 whether of soul, mind, or body.  

Therefore I come to You
