Yesterday I received the My Caring Cross for review from Tomoson.com. My first impression of the packaging it came in was unexpected. The cross itself came in a nice velour outside bag,and I felt this was a great way to spark interest in the cross. Now on to the cross itself. I was actually surprised at the cross as well, as it was so sturdy. It is a beautiful stained wood textured cross. A lot more stable and sturdy than what I expected to receive.
I also carried it with me last night when I took my children out for Halloween, and I was aked about it. I was able to let a few individuals know where it came from and how much it would be to order the item. A few were impressed,and were very interested. I will add a further review once I display the Cross in more settings.
Our Mission is to help Christians in Bethlehem
Issa is a Christian living on the outskirts of Bethlehem and has been carving crosses and religious items his whole life to support his wife and three children. Twenty years ago my mother met Issa on a visit to Bethlehem and began importing his olive wood handicrafts. With the decline in Bethlehem tourism, Issa and other Christian Artisans are struggling. Our aim is to support them by providing a market for olive wood crosses direct to Christians in America.
The Olivewood Cross
Caring Crosses are individually carved from a single unique piece of beautifully grained olive wood pruned from the olive trees around Bethlehem the birthplace of Jesus. Christians have been carving crosses like this for hundreds of years, originally for pilgrims and more recently tourists visiting the Holy Land. Each craftsman receives a fair price to support their family and Christian community. The Caring Cross is designed to fit comfortably into the palm of your hand as an aid to prayer or meditation. Ideal as your spiritual companion for easing children's fears, comforting worries and stresses of adults and focusing the prayer of the sick and elderly.
My readers can purchase 2 crosses with cards and bag and postage within the US for $10, a $2 discount. To be directed to this special page, you will need to click
