Thank you for taking the time to learn a little bit about my work.
 
To help you to understand the importance of this work in my life, I'd like to share with you how this mission of mine began. 
 
From the time I was a child, I was a member of the United Methodist Church.  When I became an adult, I was very involved in the church even teaching Sunday School to the youth at one time.  I never had any exposure to the Catholic Church.  Growing up in the "bible belt", most of my friends and family were either Methodist or Baptist.  Everything I knew about being Catholic; I learned from television and movies.
 
I always loved religious articles and one day while I was surfing on Ebay, I found a rosary for sale.  Something made me buy it.  When it arrived I found some information on the internet about how to pray the rosary and began praying the rosary every day.  My love for the devotion grew. 
 
I have always been a "crafter".  Crochet, Ceramics, Cross-Stitch, Jewelry Making, and a host of other crafts have filled many hours of my spare time.  The more I looked at my new Rosary, the more the "crafter" in me started to come out.  I thought that making a rosary didn't look any harder than some of the other crafts I had persued so I found a website that sold rosary parts and ordered enough supplies to make a couple of rosaries.  My endeavor went so well, I bought some more supplies and made a few more rosaries.  After a few months I discovered that I had filled a small box with my creations and I had no idea what I was going to do with them all. 
 
I started studying Catholicism and the Rosary Devotion online and in the course of that study I found out that there is a great need for rosaries and other devotional items among mission workers and that they rely on people like us to supply their needs.   My heart was touched. 
 
Soon I discovered Our Lady's Rosary Makers online and when I found out that they sell the parts to make mission rosaries I joined right away.  It occured to me that I could make nice chained rosaries and sell them online to raise the money to buy mission rosary supplies, so I invested in the parts to make some more chained rosaries and I built this website. 
 
For every $10.00 "profit" I make from the sale of my chained rosaries, I can purchase the supplies to make about 25 Corded Mission Rosaries and pay for the postage to mail them to where they are needed.  Over the last few years I have made thousands of rosaries and am happy to report that they have found their way to missions here in the United States as well missions in South America, India, Malaysia, Ghana and other remote places on this earth.  I have supplied traditional missions, prayer groups, theological students, and hospital clergy.  Of course I am also happy to supply rosaries to  individuals who are just learning the joy of praying the rosary devotion.
 
I work a full time job and am limited in time and extra money, but I do the best I can do.   This is a small mission, but it is my way of trying to use my talents and abilities to serve Our Lord and to spread devotion to Our Lady.  Please pray for me that I may succeed in my efforts to spread this devotion wherever it is needed and if possible, buy a rosary for yourself or a friend.
 
In Peace,
 
Gale
