Virgin Mary OL Guadalupe, Saints Religious Bracelet

In 1531 a "Lady from Heaven" appeared to a poor Indian at Tepeyac, a hill northwest of Mexico City; she identified herself as the Mother of the True God, instructed him to have the bishop build a temple on the site and left an image of herself imprinted miraculously on his tilma, a poor quality cactus-cloth, which should have deteriorated in 20 years but shows no sign of decay 474 years later and still defies all scientific explanations of its origin.

Today I was inspired to create another bracelet for Our Humble Lady of Guadalupe. I used red roses as The Rose being representative of Mary

The rose is regarded as the "queen of flowers", and often symbolizes Mary, the Queen of Heaven. Also an almost universal symbol of perfect love, its color, perfection of form, and fragrance, as well as its thorns signifies Mary's role in salvation history as the Mother of God the Savior who was crowned with thorns and shed His blood on the Cross for love of mankind. The rose, arising from a thorny bush, also signifies Mary, the Mystical Rose, "our fallen Nature's solitary boast", who alone of the human race was conceived without sin. It also may contain a parallel with the fiery thorn bush from which God spoke to Moses: Mary, immaculately conceived, was the means through which God became Man, The Word made flesh.)

I used red coral beads, natural jade gemstones and turquoise howlite beads. Catholic medals include Jesus as "The Good Shepherd", St. Michael, St. Jude, St. Dominic with Queen of Most Holy Rosary, St. Michael, St. Theresa and St. John of God.

I love this combination of stones for Our Lady of Guadalupe, it just brings back memories of a dream I had where She appeared wearing those colors and immediately I knew it was Our Lady of Guadalupe, but with different mantle with those colors and told me "I'm the same and don't tell anyone that I'm here and I look different, I want them to feel I'm here"

That is why I just love these colors.

Vintage and New St. Padre Pio Religious Necklace

"Yes, I love the cross and only the cross. I love it because I see it always on the shoulders of Jesus. Now Jesus sees clearly that all my life and all my heart is vowed to Him and to His sufferings" -Padre Pio

I had the most unique experience creating this special necklace with St. Padre Pio.

I had his pewter statue for a while and I just could not come up with anything that I could use it on and I added it to a silvertone filigree stamping, but nothing was coming to my mind as to what else to add and I just set it aside.

About a week ago this special Lady "Sunny" sent me anther box full of beautiful surprises to continue making my jewelry and in that box was this old Jerusalem rosary with Terra Sancta center but it was broken and some Hail Mary beads missing. I set it aside on my beading table waiting to see how I could repair it.

Today when I went to my bead room to start creating, the rosary was right up front on my table, like it was moved and I set it aside, and later again, it was in front and St. Padre Pio's statue was almost peeking from where I had placed it and I just could not keep my eyes away from his statue and all of the sudden I get this surge of energy and I just grabbed the statue and the rosary together and it was just like nothing could stop me creating it. I began and didn't stop until I finished and everything just fell into place on his statue, adding all the rhinestones and I loved how it just came together, like St. Padre Pio wanted to be added to this special Rosary.

What a Blessing - Pictures are worth a thousand words

I feel so blessed and priviledged to have such a blessed child as my granddaughter. She is my first and only granddaughter for now. She is only 16 mos. old.Since she was born I felt that she has a strong connection with Our Blessed Mother and now that she is growing, I have witnessed several signs but what I captured today just brought me to tears. It's amazing what I was able to capture today in pictures and like the saying goes pictures are worth a thousand words and speak for themselves. I will share a little on it.

I have a statue of Our Blessed Mother and Christ "Pieta" and she has seen it before but since I moved it to the back room of my house where I keep all my bracelets and take pictures, the reason I moved it because I had a dream that the statue was there on the room where all my bracelets are and it was radiating light and lots of other lights like lighting were coming out of the statue and was killing some small snakes trying to get in, so after that dream I decided to move it to that specific room, well a couple of days ago, my granddaughter approached the statue and began caressing Our Lord's head and she had

a small cup with her and tried to give Him water and at that time I didn't have the camera ready but was so touched by her gesture.

Today I noticed she sat down next to the statue and began kissing Our Lord, so I grabbed the camera and took the pictures, she was even caressing His feet and saying "Coco" which is a word we use in our Hispanic culture to babies when they hurt themselves, like in English we say Boo Boo, she kept saying it then kissed Our Lord and Blessed Mother and placed her little hands on Their heads like healing, I was just tearing up. I just stood there speechless and she didn't even realized I was taking the pictures, she was just focus on what she was doing.

It's unbelievable how her little spirit sense The image represents pain and suffering and felt compelled to make Our Lord and Blessed Mother feel better. Still some people today don't believe statues have the power to convey a message and spiritual energy.

On this picture is where she was caressing Our Lord then looked at His feet and was saying "coco" like He has a boo boo on His feet then got up and the next picture shows what she did next.



I still get teary eyed when I look at these pictures and feel the beautiful energy and peace I felt the moment I witnessed it.

Beautiful Healing Experience

I must share my wonderful experience with my personal healing, truly a miracle. For several days last week and few from this week I had been sick, very tired and with really bad pain all over my body, I didn't know what was going if my arthritis was acting up or dehydration, this is the most pain I've experienced and no energy to continue with my creations.

I prayed to Our Lord, Blessed Mother, St. Padre Pio or whom could intervene for me and bring me the healing to my body and on Friday I received a wonderful surprise. It was a package with many jewelry pieces and medals from a wonderful special lady "Sunny" that she has purchased from me before and has sent me in the past other boxes full of supplies and medals to continue creating my jewelry. She is a very special Spiritual lady.

When I opened the box, the most beautiful scent of roses came from the box then another Saintly scent as well and I got chills, a burst of energy, good spiritual energy and inside was a couple of gorgeous pictures of Our Lady of Medjugorje and one of Fr. Peter Mary Rookey, O.S.M and my body began to experience the healing, the pain was less and by the end of the day was almost completely gone and today is completely gone. I cannot express my emotions how My Blessed Mother sent me the healing through this wonderful lady that needed to send me this wonderful cards of this Holy man and My Blessed Lady.

I cannot stop thinking of this wonderful miracle and would like to share the sites where you may obtain prayers or the cards. I believe I had to experience that pain then the miracle to let others about Our Blessed Mother's Healing and also about Fr. Peter Mary Rookey "Man of Miracles"

For Fr. Peter Mary Rookey, O.S.M you may send prayer requests to (708) 748-MARY (6279)
