Pray one of the best loved prayers of the Catholic Church, the Rosary, with your own personal birthstone rosary. The January birthstone rosary has garnet colored glass beads and metal links and a unique Mary medal. The joiner is a medal of Mary with a circle of stars around her head perhaps indicating she is the queen of heaven. The unusual crucifix of the January birthstone rosary has engraved hearts around the silver looking corpus giving us a visual image of the love Christ had for us. The lovely garnet glass beads, specific to January, make a striking contrast to the metal links and medals of the birthstone rosary. A rosary is a very personal possession when used to pray and using your January birthstone rosary adds a very special intimate aspect to saying this beautiful prayer. The January birthstone rosary will make, of course, a lovely birthday gift, could be given as a personal gift to someone going through one of the sacraments or an RCIA program but would also be a special gift for anyone to whom saying the Rosary is a cherished way to pray.
