The Franciscan Crown Depicting the Seven Joys of Mary

franciscan crown

The Franciscan Crown rosary tradition began with an apparition of Our Lady to a young  Franciscan novice. She asked him to “weave for me a crown from the flowers of your prayers that will always remain fresh” by reciting the seven joys that she experienced during her life. She said to him “If you recite these prayers as I have directed, rest assured, dear son, you will weave for me a most beautiful and aceptable crown and will merit innumerable graces.”

The Franciscan Crown is a rosary of seven decades; seven Our Fathers and 70 Hail Marys. Each decade is for a different joy of our Lady. At the end there are two beads for two Hail Marys to complete the 72 years of her life.

This rosary is available on brown cord with olive wood beads and is accompanied by an insert explaining the tradition of the Franciscan Crown and how to pray it.

$11.00 each

st. therese sacrifice beads

plastic st therese sacrifice beads

As a child, St. Therese was given a string of beads with which to count her sacrifices and other acts of love done for God. In that way she was able to advance in perfection daily by conscious effort to eliminate defects and to acquire virtues. Sacrifice beads mimic St. Therese’s little string. Simply pull a bead each time you make an act of love or act of sacrifice for love of God! The decade of beads can also be used as a one decade rosary.  The beads have a medal of St. Therese on one end and a crucifix on the other. They come with plastic beads or wooden beads
