Earth Prayer Beads

We have created these  Earth Prayer Beads with the intention of bringing the power of prayer to bear upon the needs of the planet. These beads have been making their way around the world. Each of the beads is hand crafted and represents the 13.7+ billion years in the unfolding story of the universe.

These Beads can be worn on the wrist or carried in one's pocket!

"My work with Icons are an integration of prayer and creativity as I give myself to the symbolic power of these timeless images. Unlike many forms of painting which begin with light and add shadow, an Icon begins with shadow and adds light. 

In Mary of the Cosmos I see the universe in all its 13.7 billion years of unfolding flowing in and through Mary whose matter is made of the very star stuff of the cosmos. Christ is born out of this cosmic unfolding  and his divinized flesh speaks of the holiness and numinosity of all the matter in the universe. The Mother of love and compassion looks out to us with outstretched arms inviting us to become life bearers for the planet.”

Wildflower Memorial Cards

In the stillness and peace of our prayer chapel during the soft, silent Holy Hours of dawn and dusk we remember those who have died and those in need of prayer. Our simple Wildflower Memorial Cards are designed to be given to those who have lost loved ones. There is an insert in the card which says that wildflower seeds will be scattered in our memorial field for those who have died.

Cards are available at no cost, let us know how many you would like to order. We also have Birthday, Thinking of You, Get Well and Anniversary cards available.

To order cards send an e mail to greenmountainmonastery@together.net
