Starting to get it together

Well, my plans for my new website are finally getting underway. I have some great pictures and now it's just a matter of building a website from scratch. Wow, what an undertaking for someone who not tech savvy.  Let's just say it's taking me longer than I would have liked. Hopefully it will be ready by December. 

I am also working on replenishing my bead supply. Last night I remade my bead with the Christian symbol of the fish on it. I chose a gray background with a black fish. It reminds me of what it may have looked like when the first Christians wrote it with paint or chalk on a stone wall.  I finished all the cutting and poking of the beads today. That was a very easy design so it didn't take too long for the finished product. 

Tonight during my Holy Hour in Eucharistic Adoration, I used a new book to say the scriptural Rosary. It took a lot longer, but I got so much more out of the mysteries this time.  As I prayed the Glorious mysteries tonight, I was filled with hope. Hope for Christ's Return, hope to one day be united with Christ in heaven and hope for our country amid a changing time. 

May Christ fill you with hope during this upcoming advent season.

My first blog

I always vowed I would never blog, but now that I have an excuse to start my own blog, I'm more than happy to begin. The purpose for this blog is not to show off my excited life or my holy lifestyle or my excellent writing skills (although any of those would easily work for me- ha!). The purpose of this blog is to supplement my website (www.clayrosaries.com) with tidbits about me, the rosary making process, and to offer up prayers for those in need.
