More > understand. This collection arranged around Christ's Seven Last Words is meant to enliven the hope and peace that lead to joy in suffering and allow us to embrace our cross.

Carol O'Reilly says, "Awesome! This lady blesses the environment around her, weaving golden ageless beauty into others' days."< Less
