For the past few weeks I've been thinking of hosting a giveaway here at Praying for Grace, and decided that the Feast of the Assumption would be a great time to do it. I made several rosaries while I was recuperating, and I've chosen my favorite to offer to one reader.
The Hail Mary beads are the palest shade of blue faceted glass and the Our Fathers are a slightly larger crystal glass. The center is a cutout of Mary and the crucifix has an image of a Basilica on each arm.
To enter to win, all you have to do is leave a comment with your email address (or email me). But, just for kicks (the bonus), if you can correctly guess what prayer the O'Hara family is praying in the evening prayer scene of Gone With the Wind, I'll enter your name three times. My Assumption birthday boy will pull one name out of a hat on Friday afternoon. Have fun!

You have an Assumption birthday boy, too?!!
ReplyDeleteWell, put me down and pick my name. I would love to win one of your beautiful rosaries.
I have no idea what prayer the O'Hara family was saying, though. Was it...hmmm...an Irish blessing? (An obvious guess but it's all I've got.)
Well, I'm not a big Gone With The Wind fan, but I am a big fan of your rosaries!
ReplyDeleteMust be give-away season. :-) I've got a few things to pass along, too.
The O'Hara's are praying the Confiteor in English..."through my own fault, my own fault, my most grievous fault..."
ReplyDeleteI love that movie!! I had to help my three boys learn that particular prayer in Latin..."mea culpa, mea culpa, mea maxima culpa..."
Enter me, Barb! Your rosaries are exquisitely beautiful and so are you!
That is pretty!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful rosary, Barbara! Thanks for the giveaway - enter me please!
ReplyDeleteI don't know GWTW well enough to know the prayer, and I am too honest to steal the answer from another comment ;)
Please add my name to your hat. I would love to win one of your rosaries.

Beautiful rosary, Barbara...I love blue rosaries..:)
ReplyDeleteI already won one of your beautiful Rosaries but I gave it to my dear sister (who absolutely loved it!!!). If you don't mind, I would like to enter again. Thanks for the chance!
ReplyDeleteI would love to win one of your gorgeous rosaries, Barbara. Would you please put my name in the hat? As I recall, the O'Hara family was praying the rosary.
ReplyDeleteThanks & God bless!
Oh, how gracious of you to do this!!! You know every time that person prays with the winning rosary, you will be prayed for too? You will be thought of each time it is taken out!

Evening prayer: Only a guess here, I have no idea, can't find my copy of Gone with the Wind! St Michael the Archangel? Worth a shot anyway!
Beautiful rosary, Barbara! I'd love to win this!
ReplyDeleteAs for the prayer in Gone With the Wind - I don't have a clue.
God bless you!

I would love that rosary. It is beautiful. Maybe the O'Haras were praying the rosary.
ReplyDeleteOooh. Could you please enter me in your drawing as well? Your rosaries are so incredibly beautiful! (I've seen GWTW several times, but have no idea what prayer they are praying... but I'm intrigued enough to rent the movie and see!)
ReplyDeleteI would love to win one of your rosaries, too. That reminds me...I've still got a story to tell about the first rosary I have from you...hmmm
ReplyDeleteGod Bless,
Jane
Oh boy! Win a rosary!!! Yikes, this is fantastic and such a generous offering from you to the blogging world. Your rosaries are BEAUTIFUL!!!
ReplyDeleteI'm in and just for fun, in the movie Gone with the Wind they were praying the Confitier kneeling as a family, and Scarlett was greatly distracted, crazy girl! Wouldn't it be great to resurrect this prayers to do this as a family every night, a prayer with so much beauty. The prayer can be found in a roman Missal, 1962 version or earlier and begins; I confess to almighty God, to blessed Mary ever virgin, to blessed Michael the archangel, to John the Baptist, to the holy apostles Peter and Paul, to all the saints, and to you, brethren, that I have sinned....etc.. Gee, i got carried away, sorry, but I love this prayer. LOL
I saw the answer to the GWTW so I will just leave my e-mail... Michele.Boyd@lexisnexis.com
ReplyDeleteHope you are feeling better!
Your rosaries are beautiful, Barbara.
ReplyDeleteI have no idea what the answer is for GWTW.
