Beautiful Rosary I found on the flee market.

It dates back to somewhere between 1914 and 1930. The backside of the medal shows us it’s from the „Schönestatt“ group a Merian Group founded in 1914.

The group was suppressed during the Nazi regime what makes me belive the rosary was produced before or in the early years of their reign .

The seller told me he thinks it’s should date to the early 1900,s to.

The front of the medal with the beutiful detailed picture of the Mother of God has the words „a servant of Mary will never parish“ written in Latin

The little bag wich from the smell and materials I guess is as old as the rosary has the words „my companion“ in German on it.

The beets and the cross seems to be made out of Perlmutt.

the trick to being a good Christian is to see everybody/everything asa little piece of god. hugging my boyfriends cat right now and all I can think when I bury my head in his purring tummy is "there's a little bit of god in there. this is what being close to god feels like is being close to love and this cat is full of it"

Jesus is the Palestinian child bleeding out in his father’s arms.

Jesus is the Sudanese girl, cowering in fear under her bed.

Jesus is the disabled man on the side of the street who you mocked and took videos of.

Jesus is the homeless woman asleep on the bench who you couldn’t care to help.

Blessed Good Friday everyone <3 btw no pretty pastel sanitized crucifixions and cute gentle weeping Mary's please!! Christ was horrifically tortured on every inch of His body to the point where His bones where likely visible and yet He didn't die until His arms where nailed wide open to take on the sins of the world!!! Mary was spiritually crucified since she felt everything Jesus went through in her heart and as a mother she was likely in extremely profound grievance and anguish!!!! Please bring the gravity of Christs Passion back into art!!!!!!

"The average Passion portrayal in art seems arguably palatable in comparison to a culture desensitised to violence. He is a hairless, white, well-toned and tragically beautiful man. The blood is kept at a minimum, and what it says about institutionalised brutality and violence against marginalised Brown bodies (people!!!) must never, under any circumstance, be addressed..." - from the substack essay linked above

Found this beautiful depiction of Mary’s apparition in Lourdes in a second hand shop.

I taped a transport tube from work next to her and gave her a carnation and some laurel just wanted to show off have a blessed day

christian zionists say they want to level Gaza and build the third temple so Jesus can return, but what do they plan to say when they look Him in the eye?

"do you like the temple we built You? we built it on the bones of children. we built it by denying food to the hungry, and medicine to the sick. we killed the healers and the truth tellers, and we killed them for You. that's how much we love You, don't you see?"

but the Lord will not see, for His eyes will be too filled with tears.

sometimes praying the rosary is just about mother mary keeping you company

"We must not seek the Child Jesus in the pretty figures of our Christmas cribs. We must seek him among the undernourished children who have gone to bed at night with nothing to eat..." -St. Oscar Romero, Dec 24, 1979.

The rosary is both a sacred item of prayer and a stim toy. You know I'm right.

I wish u all a blessed first advent.

Keep praying for the oppressed masses in this world, in the birthplace of our lord Christ and beyond.

Keep praying for the people protecting God’s precious gift we call mother earth from our own greed.

May the eternal love of Saint Sergius and Bacchus kindle in our hearts like our candles do.

Transgender Day of Remembrance 2025, Nik Jovčić-Sas (nikjovcicsas)

Honoured to speak at the beautiful St Michael Within today as we remembered the trans lives lost to violence this year. At least 350 deaths reported globally—though we know the true number is far higher. It was heartbreaking to learn that the youngest trans person to lose their life in the UK this year was just 13. May their memory be eternal.

In the Orthodox Church, the Christian tradition I belong to, on Easter we sing: "Christ has risen from the dead trampling down death by death and upon those in the tombs bestowing life." I pray to Christ: As you bring life and your love upon the tombs, bring it to us here as we remember our trans siblings we have lost. Bring that life and love to every trans person where it is needed. Christ, bring your love to every queer craft club, every poetry night, and every gay bar. Sit with us in every drag queen dressing room, every gender clinic, and every counselor's office. Walk with every trans woman making her way home at night and hold the hand of every trans man laying awake and lonely at 3:00 AM. God, give your protection to every sex worker and to every non-binary person exhausted from explaining who they are to those who refuse to listen. Jesus, bring your love to every trans person living in fear of racist discrimination or deportation and to all who walk under the shadow of occupying forces in the lands you once called home. For as you harrowed hell and went among the tombs, there is no place we cannot find your love. And that in the end, no death, no hate, and no transphobia will ever defeat us. Amen.

I made this flower rosary decade as a crown for the beutiful statue of Mary in my local church and placed it on her yesterday. Sadly, when I came to pray the rosary today I noticed someone took it away I hope they placed it somewhere else but it donst seem like it. I’m kinda confused because the other flower decor I made always stayed even tho it was dry. But I’m sure our blessed mother still appreciated the work and gesture. The photos are sadly not that good but yes.

Just wanted to share that today
