Catholic Christmas Crackers

Introducing the Catholic Christmas Crackers by Gloria & Praise!  Perfect for your Christmas parties, New Year's parties, and all kinds of great Holiday get-togethers!

Christmas Crackers are pulled apart by two people which causes a friction snap to "pop", revealing goodies inside! 

Instead of a cheap prize like is often found in Crackers, the Catholic Christmas Crackers contain a surprise Pocket Saint in each cracker and an information card about the Saint (learn about the saints!).  Each cracker also contains the traditional paper crown plus a joke AND a charade - for Christmas fun!

One of the first trees mentioned in the New Testament, the Olive Tree has a special significance in the holy land.  This beautiful rosary is strung on cotton cording and the Hail Mary beads in this rosary are handmade in the Holy Land from olivewood.

Verso l'alto Rosary

Blessed Pier Giorgio Frassati was an avid outdoorsman, climber, and skier. Blessed Frassati shared the faith with his friends and the world as a lay Dominican and served the poor up until his death. This rosary honors this avid outdoorsman and the phrase he made famous. On a photo of him mountain climbing, he wrote the words "Verso l'alto" which means "toward the top." Though never his motto, the words he wrote on that page have inspired many and reflect his life: his constant love of climbing and orienting his life toward "God's summit."  This rosary is made from beads which highlight the outdoors!

 

Undoer of Knots Rosary

This rosary honors the beautiful Marian title of Mary, Undoer of Knots. In 1615, a German nobleman met with his parish priest to pray for his troubled marriage. As he lifted up the knotted wedding cord given to him by the priest and prayed that the "knots" in his marriage would be loosened, the cord immediately became untied. Shortly after, husband and wife were reconciled and their marriage was saved.  This rosary, made from unique beads, celebrates Mary, Undoer of Knots to remind us that no "knot" is too large for prayer!

 

Faith like the Blessed Mother Rosary

Mary holds a special place in our hearts as Catholics. As the mother of Jesus, she loved, suffered, and rejoiced like no one else. This rosary, with its beautiful colors, is made in honor of our Blessed Mother!  This rosary is made from beautifully unique bead choices and cotton cording! The "Our Father" beads are beautiful multicolor agate beads and the "Hail Mary" beads are a smaller agate. The rosary is finished with a beautifully formed, Italian made Silver Plated ZAMAC Crucifix.

Hand-dipped, 100% Beeswax Candles

Introducing our beautiful hand-dipped 100% Beeswax candles! These are perfect for Candlemass, a home prayer corner, brightening up a room, or as an elegant touch to family dinners! These candles are hand-dipped which creates the authentic "candle maker" look and are made from 100% beeswax which is sourced directly from beekeepers (not from a 3rd party)! Did you know that as long as a candle has 51% beeswax, it can legally be called a beeswax candle? We believe that a natural candle should be made the way candles have been made for centuries, with no synthetic waxes - that's why we only use pure, 100% beeswax in our candles!

Large Family Prayer Rosary

Praying as a family is important. This large rosary is a little over 2-feet long with 16mm large wooden beads. This rosary is PERFECT for hanging on a wall in a prayer corner, using it to pray with young children (the rosary is long enough for them to hold as well), and is a comfortable size to pray and hold yourself!

 

Pocket Saints

Introducing Pocket Saints from Gloria & Praise! Each Pocket Saint is hand created from two wooden beads which are hand painted. After being hand-painted & assembled, the "saints" are strung on Olive color premium gutted paracord and finished with a high-quality black metal spring mini-carabiner buckle.
